Nai Posted October 31, 2014 Share Posted October 31, 2014 This tutorial is available as a PDF. Click here to view or download it Hi ! Intro : This tutorial was adapted from a Photoshop tutorial written by Steve Patterson and it shows how we can add up lens flare/camera trouser effect to a picture in Paint.NET without any post-saving irreversible changes. We will manipulate 'blending mode' of the layer to do so, so we will turn this image from this : to this : Plugin needed : i) Lens Flare, OR ii) Camera Trouser Flare, OR iii) PS FilterPdN + Axion ( Photoshop plugin ) Steps : 1. Opens image. 2. Add up a new layer. Fill it with black. Set this layer to 'Screen' mode. 3. Opens the plugin. In this case I'll use Camera Trouser Flare with this setting : It'll looked like this after adding up the effect : Somehow the setting varies from picture to picture, and that setting is appropriate for the picture used in this tutorial. And we're done ! Note : This is how the same layer looked like ( in normal mode ) : Tweak the intensity of the light by adjusting the transparency of the layer, if you feel that the light is too bright. All the best ! Original picture can be found here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
