The fastest way on applying multiple masks on a layer

[Crolow]

Hi there, 

I have some images where, i need to apply multiple filters. 

For example : 

A boat in the sea with the sky in foreground. The sky is to dark, so i want to lighten it. and the sea around the boat is not sharp enough. I tryed different scenarios, but I couldn't achieve it. Maybe i missed something somewhere

To achieve this for now.

The sky adjustment.

• I duplicate my original image
• I create a mask 
• Into the mask I create a linear gradient to apply some filters to fix the Sky

The sharpening mask

• I merge the previous image
• I duplicate the image to create a mask
• I create a radial gradient to apply the sharpening filter.

Add the end I finish with 4 layers, without any chance to modify the second mask without recreating the 3d one.

Any help ? 

Thanks

Hi @Crolow and welcome to the forums.

You can do this with the compound mask. Right click on the mask icon!
