Dodge is applied when the value on the top layer is lighter than middle gray, and burn applies when the top layer value is darker. Linear Light: this blend mode combines Linear Dodge and Linear Burn (rescaled so that neutral colors become middle gray).When the top layer's color is lighter than this, this effectively moves the white point of the bottom layer down by twice the difference when it is darker, the black point is moved up by twice the difference. Dodge applies when values in the top layer are lighter than middle gray, and burn applies to darker values. Vivid Light: this blend mode combines Color Dodge and Color Burn (rescaled so that neutral colors become middle gray).Blending with white leaves the image unchanged. This is the same as inverting each layer, adding them together (as in Linear Dodge), and then inverting the result. The Linear Burn mode sums the value in the two layers and subtracts 1.The clipping happens in the same area as for the Linear Burn. The operation is not invertible due to possible clipping of shadows. When the top layer contains a homogeneous color, this effect is equivalent to changing the black point to the inverted color. Blending with white produces no difference. The darker the bottom layer, the more its color is used. This darkens the top layer increasing the contrast to reflect the color of the bottom layer. The Color Burn mode divides the inverted bottom layer by the top layer, and then inverts the result.The Multiply mode simply multiplies each component in the two layers.Linear Dodge ( Additive) blend mode applied to the example pictures Divide: Same as 'Color Dodge', but blending with white does not change the image.The contrast is decreased when there is no clipping. When the top layer contains a homogeneous color, this effect is equivalent to changing the output black point to this color, and (input) white point to the inverted color.

Blending with black does not change the image.

The Linear Dodge blend mode simply sums the values in the two layers (also known as additive blending).

The perceived contrast increases when there is no clipping. (The clipping happens in the same area as for the Linear Dodge.) When the top layer contains a homogeneous color, this effect is equivalent to changing the white point to the inverted color. The operation is not invertible due to possible clipping of highlights. Blending any color with white gives white. This lightens the bottom layer depending on the value of the top layer: the brighter the top layer, the more its color affects the bottom layer.

The Color Dodge blend mode divides the bottom layer by the inverted top layer.

The Screen blend mode inverts both layers, multiplies them, and then inverts that result.

Dodging the image is the same as burning its negative (and vice versa). Dodging lightens an image, while burning darkens it. But now the image for b=1 is not γ=0.5, but the result of a tonal curve which differs from the curve of γ=0.5 for small values of a: while gamma correction with γ=0.5 may increase the value of a many times, this new curve limits the increase of a by coefficient 4.ĭodge and burn change the lightness of the pictures, inspired by the dodging and burning performed in a darkroom. It is still a linear interpolation between 3 images for b=0, 0.5, 1.

This is also the formula used by Cairo, and in earlier PDF documentation. The result is most typically merged into the bottom layer using 'simple' (b over a) alpha compositing (making the actual formula f ( a, b ) = a l p h a ( b, a ) Where a is the value of a color channel in the underlying layer, and b is that of the corresponding channel of the upper layer. In the formulas shown on this page, values go from 0.0 (black) to 1.0 (white). The top 'layer' also is called the 'blend layer' and the 'active layer'. The top 'layer' is not necessarily a layer in the application it may be applied with a painting or editing tool. Most graphics editing programs, such as Adobe Photoshop and GIMP, allow users to modify the basic blend modes, for example by applying different levels of opacity to the top 'layer'. The default blend mode in most applications is simply to obscure the lower layer by covering it with whatever is present in the top layer (see alpha compositing) because each pixel has numerical values, there also are many other ways to blend two layers. A sketch colored digitally with use of several different blend modes in order to preserve the pencil lines and paper texture below the color layers.īlend modes (alternatively blending modes or mixing modes ) in digital image editing and computer graphics are used to determine how two layers are blended with each other.
