Using Photoshop’s Layer Mask to Replace a Blah Sky
We will use a photograph of a covered bridge taken on a cloudy day in Vermont to show how a Layer Mask can be used to replace the sky.
In Photoshop you can replace a sky by a few different methods. One way is to select the sky with the Magic Wand with the Contiguous box not checked and adding to the selection until you get the entire sky. You would then use the Polygon Lasso tool to subtract the roof of the bridge. You next open the sky image and Select it all and then copy the selected image to the clipboard. Go back to the bridge image and from the Edit menu, select Paste Into. The sky will now appear in the sky selection. You will notice that the pasted image “marching ants” will still appear, allowing you to move the sky around so you get the best part to show in the selection. Once you deselect the sky now becomes a part of the image. You will probably notice some small white halo around the horizon and the only way to remove this is by using the Clone Stamp Tool.

Horizon2- 2300/2400 Series Electronic Service Manual
110– 230 Volts A.C. 50 or 60 cycle power comes into the dispenser through field wiring to the bottom of the Power Distribution Board terminal strip (TS1) 1. This voltage passes thru a double pole double throw power switch SW2. This switch is provided for the technician to turn power off to the dispenser at the dispenser for service. Power then passes through a 3 amp fuse and then is filtered for noise. Any electrical noise is dampened out by this filter FIL1. The power is then passed from the Power Distribution Board to the Power Supply (through connector J5) for Direct Current (D.C.) conversion. There is only one Power Distribution Board and one Power Supply for the dispenser.

The Early History of Bentley
Presented by Rubén Verdés
FOUNDATION LECTURE: THE EARLY HISTORY OF BENTLEY (by Rubén Verdés) ~ Thursday, August 9, 2007, 4:30pm-6:00pm. “W.O. was involved with some interesting efforts before he designed his first car-there were steam locomotives, motorcycles, engines where cylinders spun around, the DFP (French car), and more.
