How2 lens flare.

In this picture I wanted to add a lens flare into it,
but instead of doing it the normal way I wanted to
try something different.


I created a new layer.


On the new layer I filled it in with black

On the black filled layer I used the filter "lens flare" on it.


You can place the flare anywhere that suites you.


Once I had applied the filter I adjusted the screen blend mode to "Screen".


Once I had adjusted the blend mode I move the flare to
where I wanted it. I also used the eraser (set to 53%) on the top and on the
side part of the flare layer to remove the soft edges that are showing.

And this is the finished Example
