STEP SEVEN: MASK OUT
THE HIGHLIGHTS
Select the layer mask of the Curves 2
adjustment layer and press Com­
mand­I (PC: Ctrl­I) to invert it black,
hiding the Curves effect. Then,
select the Brush tool (B), set the
Flow (up in the Options Bar) to
about 5%, and press D to set the
Foreground color to white. With a
soft, round brush, paint on the areas
that directly face the light source to
brighten them: in this example, it’s
the sky parts of the ground.

STEP EIGHT: ADD A TEXTURE
Go to Finder (PC: File Explorer) and
locate the texture that you want to
add. For this example, as with the
main image, you may download the
JPEG Preview for free or license the
full­resolution version from Adobe
Stock and save it to your Libraries
panel by clicking the Save to Library
button here.
Drag­and­drop the texture over
the canvas. If you’ve added it to your
Libraries panel, you can do the same
directly from there. Make the texture
image large enough to fill the frame
and then press Enter.
