Quick HDR Effect!
« on: August 18, 2011, 09:59:11 AM »
Hi guys, I thought that maybe helpful for some of us, so I decide to share it.

Step 1:
First of all, open any photo that you want to convert to HDR.


Step 2:
Now, go to Image> Adjustments> Shadow/Highlights. Set the “Shadow” and “Highlights” amount to 40-50%


Step 3:

Duplicate the layer, then go to Image> Adjustments> Desaturate (for CS3 users, choose “Image> Adjustments>Black & White” and click “OK”).
After that, change the layer blending to “Hard Light“.




Step 4:

Let’s add some extra color to the picture. Duplicate the original picture (we will call it Blur), and put it on top of the other layers.
Next go to Filter>Blur>Gaussian Blur, set the Radius around 40 pixels.


Change the layer blending to “Soft Light“.


Final Result:

I forgot to thank Newton for the program, and Newton also said that I need to get it full, then it doesn't put that water mark.
