hi there. thank you so much for the tutorials !

i've tried to decrease the brightness of layer 2 (shown when highlighted), but i couldnt really make iteven close toinvisible while the image not highlighted. My layer 2 is pretty obvious.

any suggestions on how to improve it ?

thanks !

I really don't think that you will be able to achive a perfect result.
It all really depends on what type of image your are using and the colours involved.
You will have to sacrifice some image quality to achive a near perfect result.
Try the following settings: Brightness: +35, Contrast -75.
