Overlay Fade Load your image and convert it to grayscale or B&W. To convert your image to black and white go to IMAGE>MODE>GRAYSCALE then convert it back to RGB. | |
Make a gradient background layer. A pure black or white background will not work with this effect and other backgrounds which are either too dark or too bright. | |
Paste the image on a new layer on top of the gradient background. | |
Then go to the layers palette
and change the layer mode from normal to overlay of the image on top
of the background. Reduce to opacity to get a softer effect on the image. •Download the PSD file used in this tutorial |
