After several Google searches and searching the forum, I'm looking for simple, lightweight and easy way to create a clear glass overlay. I've attached an image that shows the clarity. It's easy to do in CSS but I can't figure out how to do it in Photoshop.

  • In the image above, for best practice; Should the rectangle that is filled with color be a higher value or lower value than the background image?

  • It depends upon the highlight you want. If you want a lighter area use a lighter color, if you want it darker, use a darker color. The image above uses a darker color.
