Students will learn how blending modes can add effects to their photos. They will have this option to utilize and alter their own personal photos.

First open one of your photos of which you would like to add texture. Next, open a texture image (such as vintage paper, rust, water drops, torn metal, etc). Then drag your texture onto your photo.

Next, look in your layers palette and select the pull down menu that says normal. These are your blending modes.

Experiment with your different blending modes to see the changes to your photo. Try different textures. Remember, you can always adjust you levels, hue, curves, opacity, etc to your photo to get your desired effect.
