Thanx Tim, but my thick skull, (and it is getting thicker with age...

), still doesn't see the need for layers. I don't do much pp, and using layers seems like more trouble than it's worth.

Feel free to try and convince me that I'm wrong - it shouldn't be too hard...

Ron

I'm not trying to convince Ron, just help those that have struggled with the concept. That said I guess the main advantage is absolute control and do over capability.

And a question for you FMers.
Whats the procedure to check blown whites in CS5, not ACR?

Paul, open the image in PS and check the info panel. If it isn't open window-info will open it for you. Then move your cursor over the image and watch the RGB values, over 255 is burnt.
