WORKING WITH LAYERS
Photoshop provides you with a feature to combine multiple elements to make one file with the
help of layers. A layer can be defined as one transparent sheet on top of another. Each of these
layers contains a part of the image, which are then combined to form the complete image. When
you open a file in Photoshop, the first layer by default is the Background layer with white colour.
This layer is locked and protected which means you cannot delete this layer, blending mode or
opacity of this layer. However, you can convert this layer into a regular layer by double clicking on
the lock icon and then make changes in it.
In Photoshop, you can work on each layer independently and create the desired effect. You can also
change the stacking order and can link the layers to work on them simultaneously. When working
with an image, it is advisable to use a new layer above it to apply filters or for retouching tools.
