Θέμα: RE: Soft Focus Filter in PS =3F?=

THnaks herschel....the screen blend mode was the touch I needed!

A good imitation is got by duplicating the layer, Gaussian-blurring it a lot and then changing the blending mode to Β β??SCREENβ??Β  You can then reduce the layer opacity and make more copies of the layerβ?¦ play a bit.

Experiment with how much blur and how many Β very thin layers.

I wrote an action that's on the Adobe web site that makes a soft focus automatically. I'd be happy to give it to anyone here for a soft focus and a softened edge for an image. It's been downloaded more than 200k times on Adobe, so I feel like it works pretty well. ANyway, ping me if you want a copy and I'll e-mail it to you.

 

Cordially,

 

Mark Lent

For soft focus one thing you can do is duplicate your layer and apply a gaussian blur to your liking then erase away what you want to have in sharp focus.

 

For arm and facial hair I recommend waxing before the shoot. Ha.

 

I use the portraiture filter from here:

It's not free ($169.95 usd) but it is amazingly good.

 

Good luck.

Hello all!

I will be needing your contribution on 2 photoshop tips.

1. How do emulate the Soft Focus Filter effect in PS? Select and use Blur? Any special adjustments?

2. How do deal with facial and arm hair on ladies? I have tried both levels and selective color (varying the intensity of black) but the way I did it was not selective and delicate enough, affecting the skin too. Any Γʼβ?¬Ε?nip tuckΓʼβ?¬Β? magic here?

And youΓʼβ?¬β?ʼve guess it. I have shoot a relativeΓʼβ?¬β?ʼs engagement ceremony.

thanks, Kostas
