JD Sartain / IDGįor our example, we used a dancer leaping through the air (see figure 06). Settings include the angle of the motion (from zero to plus or minus 360 degrees) and the distance of the spreading pixels-that is, how far the image is stretched to emulate the movement. When you photograph a moving target, you can “stop” the action with camera settings or set your shutter speed to 1/60 th of a second (give or take), and shoot the subject “in motion.” With Photoshop, just use the Motion Blur filter. Motion Blur: The Motion Blur does exactly what you would expect-it creates the illusion of motion. JD Sartain / IDGĠ5 Use the Lens Blur to adjust depth of field. The beautiful red rose looks like velvet on a background of green sand.
The Noise was set to 3 with Uniform Distribution. For the Highlights, we did Brightness 10 and Threshold 20. We used an Octagon shape with a Radius of 35, a Blade Curvature of 55, and a Rotation of 25. To avoid this remove (cut out) the surrounding area first, blur, then paste the surrounding area back into place (which will likely create a hard edge unless you slightly blur the edges of the cut-out area as well).Ĭheck out the red rose in figure 05. Note that the edges of the selected area contain colors from the surrounding areas, which may produce a fuzzy or feathered outline. JD Sartain / IDGĠ4 Photoshop’s Gaussian Blur is a popular choice. It uses a sliding scale from 0.1 to 1000, which produces a wide range of results.
It uses a bell-shaped curve, which has its highest point in the center, then decreases on both sides (just like a bell) to blur the selected area of an image. Gaussian Blur (or Gaussian distribution) seems to be the most popular. Use this filter to soften the petals of a flower (see our coral rose in figure 03), while simultaneously enhancing the edges so the flower stands out against a busy background. With contrasting colors, the Box Blur creates subtle, glowing edges between the objects or the objects and the background. Box Blur & Gaussian Blur filtersīox Blur: The Box Blur finds the edges of the objects in an image, then averages the colors of the pixels adjacent to the target objects to create a soft, silky blur effect. JD Sartain / IDGĠ2 Use the Photoshop Blur & Blur More filters to soften edges and smooth over image defects. The changes are subtle on both Blur and Blur More, so you may have to “Blur More” repeatedly to achieve the desired result. Blur More: The same results as the Blur filter, only increased by four times the effect.
