Do the layers have the ability to partially "mask" lower layers?

I would like to learn how to use a middle layer to "mask" a lower layer from an upper layer. Is this possible to do?

For example, if i use a black or white gradient could the color or alpha or transparency of that middle layer do this?

(Please pardon my incorrect use of any terms above.)

Take a look at david.atwell's tutorial on tilt shifting. See if his masking technique is what you are looking for.

hmmm, very blurry solution, maybe i should say i want the lower and upper layers to each fade partially due to the middle layer's transparency value or color value or alpha values so that the end result is that the upper and lower layers fade (meld? join?) into each other.

Hmm, i don't think i have, could you explain that to me, i'm not following you, i have just 3 layers: top (picture A), middle (something that will blend or fade or mix or merge or composite the two pictures), bottom (picture .
