You can see it’s almost like a halo effect or a doubling effect there. Hide the top layer and select the bottom to see this as the background. Press Q to exit quickmask.Ĭhoose the Select and Mask right now, and I’ll give it a little bit of radiance just to make it look better, and clean it up a little bit.
