Thank you for reminding me about this book. I used to loo0k at it 2 or 3 years ago and believed much of it was beyond my interest. Since then my views have changed and I shall have another look with a different attitude. Overlay is a useful Mode for strengthening images. I also use colour when producing sepia toned image.
