Making selections in Photoshop

Selections let you work with only part of an image. You can choose all of a layer or only portions of a layer that you select with one of the selection tools, such as the Marquee or Magic Wand. The Select menu is short and sweet, but the capability and control that the menu unleashes is nothing short of an image-editing miracle.

Understanding selections is such an important cornerstone to your Photoshop knowledge that I devote an entire blog to showing you how to use them.

Another important capability is the option of saving selections and loading them later for reuse. Not only can you load a selection you’ve already made, but you can also subtract the saved selection from another selection or add it to another new or saved selection.

To save a selection, choose Select➪Save Selection. In the Save Selection dialog box that appears, type a name for the selection and click OK.
