Working these days with writing entries Stuffed with gradients I remembered a simple work I did a while with a couple of pictures. The result you can get is the following:
The procedure involves opening the same image in two, one change caterine in the orientation, move layers, apply a quick mask, gradient fill and clean that layer. caterine Open both images in GIMP using the File menu -> Open as layers ... Once you open the two images can see them in the Layers window:
As the two open images come from a JPG neither has alpha channel layers. The underlying image (degrada_mascara_01.jpg) does not need the channel for this job but the other yes. So right click on the layer containing degrada_mascara_02.jpg and we add alpha channel. First let's do a Flip horizontally to the image occupies the upper layer. Flip Horizontal Tool option and click on the image:
The effect we want to achieve is that gradually disappears from the picture above and appears just as the image below. Remember the mask allows for quick selections from colors: white paint with if that area will become clear when the mask selection.
