A Deeper Look At Intersect Mask In Lightroom

The Intersect Mask feature of Lightroom is a very powerful masking tool. I use it all the time with Luminance and Color Range masks. Intersect enables you to apply an intricate, nuanced range mask to a set of mask selections. You can also expand the intersection with other masking tools after creating the intersection. Use the drag and drop feature of the masking panel to reorder the mask selections. All selections beneath an intersection mask get the intersecting mask applied. I’ll show you how it works in this video.

Great explanation and especially dragging to change order. I've never understood the power of intersecting masks until now. Thanks!

Great video Scott. Thanks for it. I never knew about the ability to drag the masks as if they were layers. A real game changer for me at least.

Think I'm more confused than I was before.

Starting to look a lot like layers, hmm.
