2.  make selection of image (for example, clouds) , apply filter - topaz clarity - within same smart layer.

 

i make selection (for example, foreground) , apply topaz clarity within same smart layer i'm having issues.  suggestions?  thanks!

there 1 smart filters mask smart filters on smart object layer.  need duplicate smart object layer duplicate layer not menu  layer>smart object layer>new smart object layer via copy.  way 2 smart object layer share single object. can have 2 smart filter mask , 2 layer mask. add filters 1 or other. can edit smart filter mask as  layer mask on each of smart object layers. duplicate there can 4 mask.  can add adjustment layers each layer , these can have adjustment layer layer mask.  if open object of either layer in acr can adjust conversion of both layers.   on other hand if duplicated layer using menu layer>smart object layer>new smart object layer via copy objects independent.  can have different acr conversions each smart object layer.
