           This was my first time using Photoshop. I learned how to rasterizing an image, use the lasso tool, and use the clipping mask tool.  The history option and COMMAND Z were the most useful because I was able to go back and fix my mistakes.  My biggest obstacle is remembering when to select the eye icon in the layers panel for visibility. It's key for me to remember that so that I don't cause confusion or unnecessary mistakes.
