This tutorial introduces how to add smoky special effects to landscape photos. Idea: The author is very clever. He simply adds some solid color base maps, and then uses the eraser tool to lightly rub some ravines and low-lying areas, and it immediately creates a smoke effect. Very worth learning.
Original picture
final effect
1. Open the original image and press Ctrl + J to copy one layer. Use the lasso tool to roughly select the nearby mountain, as shown below.
2. Duplicate layer 1, create a new layer between layer 1 and the copy of layer 1, fill it with white, and then use the eraser tool to erase the cloud effect.
3. The main part has been expressed. Let’s take a look at where it needs to be added. I plan to draw a rising red sun in its original place.
4. Use the brush to apply slowly. The approximate effect is as shown below.
5. Then adjust the overall color to complete the final effect.
