In the Layers palette, click the Create a New Layer button () to add Layer 5 to the image, just above Layer 1 in the palette.

2.

Double-click Layer 5, type Paint to rename the layer, and press Enter (Windows) or Return (Mac OS).

3.

In the Layers palette, choose Color from the Blending Mode pop-up menu to the left of the Opacity text box.

NoteIf you ever want to delete a layer, you can drag it to the Trash button at the bottom of the Layers palette. Or, simply select the layer you want to delete and then click the Trash button and, when prompted, confirm that you want to delete the layer.

You can use the Color mode to change the hue of a selection without affecting the highlights and shadows. This means that you can apply a variety of color tints without changing the original highlights and shadows of the pears.

1.

Choose Select > Load Selection. In the Load Selection dialog box, choose Channel > Right Pear, and click OK.

Notice in the Load Selection dialog box that the color-mode change you just made also was saved as a selection, called Paint Transparency.

2.

Select the Brush tool (). Then, on the tool options bar, type, scrub, or drag the slider to set the Opacity to about 50%.

Change the brush opacity by pressing a number on the keypad from 0 to 9 (where 1 is 10%, 9 is 90%, and 0 is 100%).

3.

In the Brush pop-up palette, select a large soft-edged brush, such as the Soft Round 35-pixel brush. Click off the palette to close it.

Next, you'll use a darker and a lighter shade to add highlights and shadows.
