multiple photos- making sections lighter

[Brian Cluff]

In gimp you would open up your images as layers and then in the layers 
window click the little eye next to all of the layers except for the 
bottom one.  Then one by one, starting at the next to the last one, 
click the eye on the layer to make it visile again.  Then right click on 
the image and select "Add Layer Mask".  When the layer mask settings 
come up select "Black (Full Transparency)" and that will make the layer 
appear to dissappear.  Then all you have to do is use the airbrush or 
paint tool (start with the paint tool) to paint white onto the layer 
mask, using a fussy brush, and that will cause the features of the layer 
to be airbrushed into the picture.

Once done with that layer, just repeate with the rest of the layers 
until your satisfied with your image.  If you want to decrease the 
amount of the overall effect that any layer applies to your image just 
adjust the Opacity slider back and forth till you are happy with the 
results.
