Just starting to learn the program and I am feeling very stupid right out of the box.
I know that this should be simple, but I have not been able to figure it out: I am working on photographs of architectural interiors. First thing I do is to adjust perspective. Easy. Then, I want to make separate exposure adjustments for the interior and for the views out the windows.
No problem, I thought: simply create a mask layer that contains only the windows and adjust the exposure for this layer separately, then adjust the background to taste and layer the edited window layer on top of this. But, my window layer has an opaque background so the Background does not show through.
I tried following the instructions for clipping, but I could not make this work either.
I know I am missing something basic, but I have not yet figured it out.
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
