RASTERIZING LAYERS: To apply a simple image adjustment (from the Image menu), a layer must be converted from a smart object to a rasterized image. Simple image adjustments are destructive and cannot be edited after an adjustment is applied. For this reason we duplicate the Original layer for safekeeping. I. Rasterize the Red Saturation layer image by
selecting the layer in the layers panel, then: Right-Click > Rasterize or Go to Menu Bar and click/hover Layer > Rasterize > Smart Object
