A question on masking


Recommended Posts

I have attached a grey scale image in which I want to turn into a selection in photoshop. The only problem is, I don't know how to do it since there are opacities to the image. I need to be able to use the selection to totally delete the dark areas, while leaving the grey areas somewhat opaque.

 

I know it's simple. I know it's quick...I just don't know what the command is.

 

Thanks!

Here's how I typically do it...

 

Select all... copy. Create new channel. Paste. Ctrl right-click on the new channel thumbnail. There is your selection. Once you have the channel, you can also choose, Select, Load Selection....
