pamthomas Posted October 29, 2009 Share Posted October 29, 2009 As a photographer I wish to add a gradient to the sky of a landscape. I can't fathom it out... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoltBait Posted October 29, 2009 Share Posted October 29, 2009 Funny you should mention it. Here is one I just did: viewtopic.php?p=297834#p297834 Be sure to click the Hide tag to see the pic before I edited it. Here's how I did it: First, use Adjustments > Hue Saturation to increase the saturation of your image. Add a new layer. Select a nice dark blue for primary color Select the same color for secondary and slide the alpha slider all the way to transparent. Draw a gradient from the top of the picture to the bottom of where the sky is. (adjust as necessary) Press Enter to finalize the gradient. Press F4 to modify the layer properties. Change the blending mode to taste. (Try Multiply, Overlay, etc.) Adjust the Opacity of the layer to taste. Press OK to finalize the image.

LibbyH Posted October 29, 2009 Share Posted October 29, 2009 Oh! That's really interesting. I knew before I came here that I could do a lot with paint.net, but I still had no idea how amazing this program is! Quote My Gallery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
