…In the first step in this project, we took a look at how we could…convert the image to black and white, and…then add a new photograph in the background.…In this next step, we're going to explore how we…can begin to hand color or hand tint this photograph.…And that will begin by taking a few steps…at looking at how we can work with layers and…how we can change the layer blending mode to…color, and also work with the mask on that layer.…So, here.…Let's go ahead and pick a color for our skin tone.…One easy way to do that is to click on the adjustment…layer icon which is located here at the base of the Layers panel.…
