The Photoshop Blend-if sliders are a great way to interactively blend two images based on luminosity ranges.
I sometimes use it to wear away an image of a painted graphic against an underlying wood grain or brick texture, to make it seem as if the paint is very old.
Sometimes I wish I had a layer mask to use to control the blend, so I could take it into, say, Maxwell, and make a layered material with the wood rough and the paint smooth.

Here's one way to extract a layer mask.
