Photoshop’s opacity setting is a great and easy way to adjust the transparency of an image. You can either make the entire image transparent, or just make a certain part of the image transparent. It’s totally up to you.
Making an image – or parts of an image – transparent – gives you endless possibilities to combine different layers and create new and stunning photo effects. You can place another image or text on top or have a different image shine through from beneath.
If you’re into digital art or photo manipulations, you might want to create imaginary and mysterious scenes where things overlap and blend into one another.
This is all possible by editing part of an image in Photoshop. But how exactly do you fade part of an image in Photoshop? This is exactly what I’ll be showing you in this tutorial!
I’ll be using Photoshop CS6, but it works the same way with any recent version, like Photoshop 2020, 2019, and earlier.
