Instructions for making a Double Exposure

3. Choose File and click Open
(repeat steps 2 and 3 to open a second file)
4. Make sure the Layers Palette is visible, if not go to Window - > Layers
5. Select the Move Tool from the Tool Palette (it looks like an arrow and the shortcut is the letter V)
6. With the Move Tool click on one of the images and drag and drop it on top of the second image.
7. Adjust the Opacity of the top layer in the Layers Palette by selecting the top layer and then dragging the opacity slider to the left.
8. You can use the Move Tool again if necessary to change the placement of the top layer.
9. Use Free Transform (CNTRL + T or Command + T) to adjust the size of the image
10. Use the Eraser tool (keyboard shortcut is E), to remove parts of the image
11. Save your image by going to the File menu and Save As (Choose JPEG for finished images and PSD for unfinished images). For JPEG save the image at the highest size (Size 12).
***REMEMBER YOU CAN ALWAYS GO BACKWARDS ONE STEP WITH THE KEYBOARD SHORCUT CONTROL + Z or COMMAND + Z***
