I’ve been working with an image with about a half dozen layers. Some of these are Curves adjustment layers, I’ve also added a layer, using Soft Light mode, and then paint either in black or white to dodge and burn the image. At some point, when I started painting in this layer, or in the masks of the adjusment layers, instead of seeing my results in the image, I’m see red brush strokes being added to the image. It looks like the red you get when you toggle the "\" key and you’re seeing what’s in the layer and the masks in rubylith.

Also, when I select a layer, it turns light gray, not blue, as with other images.

What is wrong here?

Okay, I don’t know what the problem was, but I fixed it by going into Channels, deleting the ‘Mask’ channel, then adding back a mask to the Curves adjustment layer.

All is well, but I’m still curious as to what happened.
