I've been working on a selection of images for some time now, and realized unfortunately after the fact, that the proper way to edit an image, is to do so on a layer.
Having already invested a considerable amount of time editing directly on the image backgrounds, is there any way to isolate the changes or edits already made to the images, and export to a new layer?
Thanks for any shared expertise.

I don't think so. But why does it matter if you did the edits on the background or a layer? The background is essentially a layer.
Are you familiar with droplets/actions? It's a way to record your actions on one image and then batch process more images with the same actions. That might help?

Thanks Steph,
It's for somthing work related and in hindsight, for this particular project, I can see the standard, or impression it could potentially make.
I've never used the eyedroplets. I have done some batch processing, but only when it was clear beforehand numerous actions of the same effect would be necessary.

The main advantage to working on a layer is that it's non-destructive editing. So you can turn the layer style on and off to see the effect and if it ain't right just delete the layer and no harm is done to the original.

Yes, its that "before and after" function I'd like to present. It's unfortunate a layer isn't initiated by default, upon any attempt to directly edit a background.

Not that it would solve the current issue, but good to know its at least possible.
