Hi

I am new to the forum and would like to ask a question of how to make a effect of foggy glow looking landscape picture. I tried the guassian blur with gradien fill, but not quite the same as I wanted. I wonder if PH can do the job with buying the other plugin filter.

enclosed a sample effect which I would like to make.

We cant see the picture for some reason. There are some good cloud tutorials on gfxartist.com that I've been referred to before.

Tom,

It is a very interesting and strong graphic website. Unfortunately I do not find this cloud tutorial that you mentioned.

It is not quite like what you say big blur.

Yes, it is the picture A98E70 in alamy.com . Besides big blur, the high light area glow nicely and sharper than only a blur effect.

I tried to make a background copy and reduce the opacity to make guassien blur, not as good as. Too far away.

But thank for giving a tips anyway.

##I did once a big blur and big sharpen, the result come out quite interesting too. but not Foggy.

A different way of doing it would be to create a 1px scanline layer in a seperate Channel, load that selection then Right-click the image layer and select Layer via Copy. Then adjust the Brightness/Contrast (try +10/+20 first, or play around with the settings) and apply a 1~3px Gaussian blur. Duplicate the layer twice. On the top blur layer, set the layer mode to Overlay with ~50-75% opacity. On the middle blur layer, set the layer mode to Soft Light. On the bottom blur layer, change the opacity to ~50~100%.

Also, you can check out Paavo's shorter method at:

The result should look something like this.

Thanks a lot!!

I am very happy, something reasonable good, if not the same.

It is very helpful moOchan. I tried some adjustment on opacity and it work more or less similair.

Thanks again.

Use a webhost and link it. pank (the owner) disables image upload since it'll eat the monthly bandwidth way too quickly.
