Join Julieanne Kost for an in-depth discussion in this video Creating a soft glow with grain, part of Photoshop CC 2018 Essential Training: Photography.
- [Instructor] A fast and easy way to give an image…a soft glow is to use the diffuse glow filter.…Because this is in the filter gallery,…I'll need to make sure that my image is in 8-bit.…I'll select image, mode, and if your image is in 16-bit,…be sure to choose 8-bit from the list.…In order to apply it in a non-destructive manner,…I'll choose filter and then convert for smart filters,…which will convert my background into a smart object.…I'll also tap the D key in order to set my default…foreground and background colors to black and white.…
Then I'll choose filter and filter gallery.…In order to change the preview to fit in window,…I'll use command zero.…Then, under the distort filters,…I'll select diffuse glow.…It's not giving me the results I expected,…and that's because I have two filters listed.…I want to delete one, so I'll click on stamp,…and then click on the delete or the trashcan icon.…Now we can change the graininess,…the glow amount, and the clear amount.…
The graininess will add grain.…I'm going to reduce the glow amount…
