A Little Trick About Photo Correction

A Little Trick About Photo Correction


Choose the picture you want to edit.

Open the picture In PhotoShop.
Create a duplication layer (Commnad/Ctrl + J)
Now apply Gaussian Blur (Filter > Blur > Gaussian Blur ) i prefer to use radius 3 pixel, you can make it at your own choice. But I suggest you not to use more then 5 pixel.
Now change the blend mode of duplication layer to Soft light or Overlay.
Its time to feel the difference.

Second method of editing the picture


Now you can also apply Radial Blur to the same picture.
Make another copy of original picture. Move this one to the top.
Now apply radial blur (Filter > Blur > Motion Blur) with 50 amount, blur method zoom and quality to best.

After applying blur, change blend mode to soft or overlay.
Now your image is ready..


you can apply both methods one by one or use only one of them. it depends the level of editing your picture needed.
