How can I add a gradient to a layer mask to counter a gradual change in the tone of one end of one photo to another?

I swear I have go nutso.  I have a photo taken with a pretty extreme move of 10mm of a shift lens, which therefore has a gradual darkening towards the top of the photo.  No problem, don't tell me.  I just added a mask layer, click on the gradient tool and drew a line (in a good way) with this tool.  What I received was a transparent area at the black end (of the gradient applied to the mask) ranking to the darkest part of the image showing through to the other end (of the gradient).

I've done it before and done the above, instinctively, so I thought that I was doing this right.  When it did not work, I tried applying the mask and the gradient to a duplicate background layer, and then flatten the image. Nada.

Jees.  Something incorrectly? An other than normal blending mode?  I even checked with a CS6 by Martin Evening guide, which seems to be able to do exactly what I wanted without any problem.

Or... maybe I 'm going nutso :).

Thanks in advance,

BAB

Normal blending mode is correct. Suppose I want to clear up a segment of heaven in image1. Dupe of image and lighten it. It's the Image 2. I exaggerated the relief much here to make it more obvious to you. Please forgive me. Normally the lightning could be more nuanced. The gradient mask attached to the Image 2 starts at the top of the tail of the plane - not the whole image. The result is image 4. Maybe your success is due to the slope not starting and ending in the appropriate box. Note the gradient is black and white.

  • How can I create a rectangle on a layer mask?

    If I choose the layer mask and the retangle tool. PS always create a new layer.

    I can't find the possibility to combine function with a layer mask

    Thank you as your help!

    I suppose you create a rectangle with the Rectangle tool, instead use the rectangle selection tool, m on the keyboard and fill with black, gray or white with your selected layer mask.

  • How can I add a product to my Adobe account or locate serial number by using the Windows registry?

    I can't find my receipt of e-mail on my purchase of CS6 end 2012. (I had a long illness, packed things away and now experience some loss of memory) I want to start again use my CS6 and thought that I would be able to go to my Adobe account to retrieve my serial number. However, my account does not show the order or registration of CS6 under my products even if I received an email from Adobe System Incorporated, welcoming me and thank me for my purchase. Cat officers do not find the corresponding product to my e-mail and refuse to make exceptions or provide assistance to a disability or illness. They say that they must have the right email address associated with the product or a proof of purchase! Other software companies have helped me to locate the serial number by using the Windows registry and then had me answering security questions. I even offered to fix the Adobe email thanking me for buying the CS6, but they said, it would not help! Does anyone know if/how I can add the CS6 to my account and get partner to my email address? Maybe Adobe cat could help me? Also, does anyone know if an encrypted version of the serial number is indeed somewhere in the Windows registry, which make possible for Adobe to help me, if they were ready? This software was very expensive and I don't understand why they won't help me if they could.

  • How can I add music and videos to my MacBook Pro to my Mini2 iPad without the synchronization process remove my existing music and videos?

    I tried to add videos to my 2 my MBP Mini iPad.

    When I hit the sync button, I'm alerted that this will remove the existing music and video on my iPad. How to prevent this?

    Hi Houston1863,

    I understand that you want videos you have on your MacBook Pro to add to your iPad.  Synchronization is a way to do it, but if you've never synced to your iTunes library before, you will get the message that you see.  The first thing I would say is that you back up your iPad if you do not already so.

    Then try a different approach to file sharing between your devices.  It is called AirDrop, and here's how it works:

  • How can I add more light to my layer?

    When I duplicate the layer two or three times, one above the other (using alpha images) the image looks better and brighter, especially when the alpha png have lines (for example, in a picture of the solar system, the orbits les orbites looks much better if I duplicate images), but is it possible, maybe an effect, to practically duplicate the layer without having to actually duplicate it? I'm doing to save rendering time, but also, it really affects render time, with three layers, as for example, on the same record, duplicate?

    Adjustable brightness levels or curves, for example. See this tutorial beginner on how to use the curves effect:

  • I have CC on my desk. How can I add it to my laptop?

    I have CC on my desk. How can I add it to my laptop? My subscription covers both computers?

    the great thing about cc is that you can disconnect from your other computers using your 3rd computer.

    That is to say, when you try to connect to a 3rd computer cc app prompts you to disconnect from your other two.  do it and you're able to use your 3rd computer.  It's so easy and fast there is no significant advantage to avoid disconnection.

    I can't even envisage a legal situation where you would like to more than one cc for any one user license.  You can install on computers of upteen, but only be connected to, at most, two at a time.

    and you can't use your programs cc on two different computers at any time.  so I can't imagine a situation where more than 1 license would be useful.
