Create a Double Exposure in Photoshop

Photoshop Today

We have been having technical difficulties opening Photoshop.

We have changed over to a new system of logging in to Photoshop. I would like everybody to be able to log in and successfully work in the program.

I will describe the correct process to open Photoshop and then we'll work on our projects for the rest of class.
