What Image Blend Modes does
Compare 18 blend looks
View 18 ways two photos work together, from Multiply and Screen to Overlay, Soft Light and Difference. Each preview uses your own photos.
Choose one of five strengths
Five full-image previews show the blend at strengths from 20% up to the full amount. Fine-tune the amount with the whole picture in view.
Try an alternative beside your pick
Compare one alternative with your current look. Keep it or discard it, and undo an applied choice if you change your mind.
Add masks, filters and frames
Preview masks, filters and frames on your own photo pair before you select one.
Inspect the PNG before you save
View the finished PNG at fit or actual size against white, black or checkerboard. Copy or save the same file you previewed.
