I've been trying to learn to use PS tools that I haven't tried previously.  
One that has challenged me previously involves Layers and Masks.  Since I 
use Elements, which doesn't include masks directly, such work has been out 
of my league.

Thanks to a friend on another list, I have been taught a work-around to use 
in applying masks.  I applied this to my last butterfly post, to cleanup the 
background, and updated the image in the gallery.  Some may like it, some 
may not.  But it was a learning exercise that I thought I needed to perform.

Comments and critiques are, as always, welcomed.
