Damien Symonds Posted January 17, 2016 Author Share Posted January 17, 2016 Yet another variation of the matte style.

Damien Symonds Posted January 17, 2016 Author Share Posted January 17, 2016 Overlay blend mode is the key here, as you'll see.

Damien Symonds Posted February 11, 2016 Author Share Posted February 11, 2016 A play with the "Dragan effect".

Josie Stahl Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 Damien, I've tried to figure out how to re-create the fake beams of light but all I can do is drag that layer to my photo. Care to enlighten me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
