Repeat the same procedure several times. There are more ways to select, but I chose this one because it is the simplest, you can choose Pen Tool, Brush Tool, Magic Wand Tool or some other tool. For this picture, Quick Selection Tool is the simplest.In this step we only change the Blend Mode to Hard Light , the opacity will be 100%.
