Selecting, Copying, and Pasting Layer Masks


hello,

i beginner when comes photoshop, vocabulary may little off. i'll try best explain situation. let me know if not making sense or if need more details.

 

i having troubles using mask create selection can use copy/paste background image psd. have isolated part of image want select using layer mask, when attempt copy/paste psd, image appears "shadow" or black silhouette i've used allow background image original psd through mask.

 

it makes sense happening since selecting mask black outline of image wanted shown through second layer. saw on tutorial able "turn mask selection appear around mask can cut out object , paste different background."

 

here's reference. it's last 2 images in tutorial:

to load  mask selection:

hold down ctrl key , click on mask, selection loaded ,

then click on layer's thumbnail (  not on mask ) and copy or cut layer other destination
