Creating Lens Flares in Photoshop

Yet another tutorial! And this one demonstrates how to create glints of light for metallics and lens flares from scratch in Photoshop, using nothing but the brushes and tools that come in PS. Also shows how to create lens reflections and anamorphic effects that would naturally occur due to lens and light distortion


Quickie tutorial demonstrates how to make custom lens flares (and apply glints of lighting to metallics) in Photoshop, using nothing but the brushes and tools that come with PS. Also shows how to create lens reflections that would naturally come off a lens flare, as well as anamorphic lens qualities to your flares, for more realism.
