Light Effects


           For this lighting effect picture, I opened this photo in PS and created a new layer. Then I made a dot with the brush tool off to the side. Next I went to pen > free form pen and drew the pattern of the effect I wanted. Then I right clicked on the pen line and went to stroke path and made it brush. I changed the color to an aqua green. Then I went to layer > layer style> and outer glow. I used one of the presets call vivid light and changed opacity to 70%. Then changed size to 43 and spread to six and set the range to 50. Then I saved as and imported to LR and exported as a jpg. The outcome of this photo was a really cool neon light looking wrap around the bird and the color stands out even more since the rest of the photo is black and white.
