The Daily Texture for 10/09/2015
​Discovered Beauty

Today's Daily Texture is so versatile and can be used with a variety of subjects, both cool and warm toned.  I used this texture with this Red Shouldered Hawk photo.  Because the sky was a solid gray, I didn't have to do any masking away of the background behind the bird.  I simply added the texture on top in multiply layer mode, and masked some of that layer off of the face and wings of the bird to maintain some brightness in those areas.  Then I duplicated the texture layer again and placed it on top, setting it to soft light at about 65% to complete the image.
