Simulate the tones of an x-ray camera.


	1. Open the image for editing.

	2. Dupliate the current layer (Ctrl+J).

	3. Invert the current layer (Ctrl+I).

	4. Add a layer mask to the current layer (Layer> Add Layer Mask> Reveal All).

	5. With the layer mask selected, use the "Apply Image" tool to apply the following properties: Source: filename Layer: Background Channel: RGB Invert: Checkmarked Blending: Normal Opacity: 100% Click OK.

	6. Add a "Hue/Saturation" layer style (Layer> Layer Style> Hue/Saturation). Set the "Saturation" to "-100"

	7. Set the current layer's blending mode to "Hard Light" and duplicate the layer once or more to increase the effect.

	8. Rollover the image on the left of this step to see the original image before this technique was applied.
