Radial Blur is great for adding some interesting effects to images that need a little something extra. Use this technique to add a little extra flare.
- Open your image and make two copies by hitting command + J two times.
- Now go to your layers palette and click on the top most layer in
the layer stack. Go to Filter > Blur > Radial Blur
- In the Radial Blur dialog box set your attributes as follows.
- Choose a large soft brush and lower the opacity, I used 50% in this example.
- Choose your top most layer, this layer should be the layer you blurred. Add a layer mask by clicking on the vector mask icon at the bottom of the layer palette.
- Use the Brush Tool and paint with black in your image, not the layer mask thumbnail. This will reveal the image below in the layer stack which is the same image without the blur filter applied.
