STEP SEVEN: Now we’ll use

Apply Image, so select it from

the Image menu. In the Apply

Image dialog, ensure the Source

is the image itself, the Layer

option is set to Merged, and

the Channel is RGB. The Target

can’t be changed; it’s the layer,

or layer mask, that was active

when you chose Apply Image.

Also make sure the Blending

option is set to Multiply, the

Opacity is at 100%, and the

Mask option is deselected. With

all this set, click OK.

STEP EIGHT: We now have a

warmer winter image, and it’s

all been achieved simply and

realistically. If you take a look

at the layer mask thumbnail,

you can see that Apply Image

created a mask based on the

image itself. The darker areas

on the mask hide the orange

paint, while the lighter areas

reveal it. Click the Eye icon off

and on to see the difference the

layer makes. You can also Shift-

click the layer mask thumbnail

in the Layers panel to turn the

mask on and off so you can see

the difference it makes.
