So I coded this quick little sketch in processing to produce a pair of masks for me - one mask would be the original Alpha, and for the other, I would use the Luma.

How and why does one make use of two masks from one image? Well, I used them in the compositing breakdown below, and for the output below as well:

More in this set to come.

This image is one in a set named “Yin Yang Masking
