I desire to have a layer effect (outer glow) on a small image (a face) that I have pasted into a larger
image. The problem is that when I apply the layer effect (outer glow) on the layer with the face, the
glow extends outwards into a certain area in which I do not want it to go.
What I would like to do is to somehow protect a small section of the background, so that the layer effect
wouldn’t hit that particular section. I tried editing in quick mask mode, but I wasn’t able to achieve my
goal.
Any suggestion appreciated,
Jon
