How Do We Open Alfa Masked PSD Images Files ?

[Saif_Alvi]

I downloaded few files (flowers), they are in psd format with screenshots of flowers. When I open it (psd) in photoshop, it opens as a MASKED image only.. So how do I find the real image.. ??? I mean how can I see actual img from alfa masked layer in photoshop ?

If the original is the .psd file with a mask, you can disable the mask in the layer menu. Just right click on the layer mask and select disable layer mask. If it is another file format, the information is either missing or color masked.

There is no color information in the file. It only containted a black and white single channel. Looks like somebody saved the mask out as a file instead of the original image. A similar file in color at that resolution would be much larger.
