Adobe Photoshop Tip > BLENDING MODE: I love to use Blending Modes in my layers, as shown in the Illustration below. I first go under MENU > LAYERS > and select a different Blending Mode for the layer. With this method, I can apply different transparencies to my layers and work non-destructive.

Adobe Photoshop Tipp > MISCHMODUS: Ich benutze gerne den Mischmodus in Photoshop – wie bei der Illustration oben. Dazu gehe ich unter MENU > EBENEN > und stelle einen anderen Mischmodus für die Ebene ein. Mit dieser Methode arbeite ich nicht-Destruktiv, und kann somit jederzeit eine Transparenz nach Wunsch verändern.
