Adobe Photoshop Elements 2.0
Masking with the Selection Brush
If you’ve worked with Adobe
®
Photoshop
®
Elements 2.0
for a while, you are probably familiar with the selection
tools: the marquee tools, the magic wand, the lasso,
polygon lasso, and the magnetic lasso. The new
selection brush makes selecting parts of an image
simpler and allows you to tweak selections by painting
on your image.
With the selection brush, you have two ways to view and
work with a selection, the traditional “marching ants
view” and the mask view. While they look different,
both views allow you to select a portion of an image that
you want to copy, apply a filter to, and lighten or
darken.
1. Select part of an image.
Click the selection brush in the toolbar. Make sure that
Mode in the options bar is set to Selection. Now you can
use any brush tip and any size brush to paint over your
image to select a portion of it. Each stroke adds to the
selection. You can even select non-contiguous sections
of your image. If you accidentally select something you
don’t want selected, press the Alt key (Windows) or the
Option key (Mac OS) and paint over the selected area to
remove that part of the selection.
2. Tweak the selection in mask mode.
In the options bar, choose Mask from the Mode menu.
You’ll notice that the non-selected areas will be overlaid
with a transparent red color. The areas that you selected
will show through this overlay. These are the areas that
you want to copy or change in some way. When you are
in mask mode, think of the overlay as masking tape that
you are placing on your image to protect it—like you do
when painting a house.
Painting with the selection brush in mask mode, adds to
the protected area of the image (and removes areas from
the selection). This is the opposite of working in
selection mode. To remove portions of the mask, press
the Alt key (Windows) or the Option key (Mac OS) and
paint over part of the mask to remove.

3. Fine tune the mask.
One big advantage of working in mask mode is that you
can paint with a soft brush to partially select portions of
an image. This is the same as feathering a selection in
selection mode, but you can more easily see the partially
selected areas in mask mode.
In the options bar, choose a soft edged brush, and then
set the Overlay opacity to about 85%. Now paint over
portions of the mask (either adding or deleting). The
edges of the mask that are more transparent are
partially selected areas. When you transform or copy
the selected area, those areas will be partially transformed,
or if you copy them, they’ll be partially transparent.
This avoids hard or abrupt edges on your
selections.
4. Copy and paste the selected image to
another photo.
Choose Edit > Copy from the menu. Open the photo
you want to paste into and choose Edit > Paste. The
selected image is pasted into a new layer in your photo.
Now click the move tool in the toolbar and drag the new
layer to the location to want in the photo. Or, if you
need to rotate or resize as you move the new layer,
choose Image > Transform > Free transform.
