Fairy Night

Fairy Night Photo Effect

This task we'll learn how to correct the photos' colors, change the eyes color, work with the layers, applying ready brushes and designs, create your own design and to picture the stars.

Let's start. Open image:



Apply Image ? Adjustments ? Curves (ctrl+m) to correct the colors.




That is what we've got:



To change the eye's color we have to picture on a new layer several circles, using Ellipse Tool. (Use the fast button on the Layers window to create a new layer).



Apply to this layer Filter ? Blur ? Gaussian Blur.



Change the layer's type on Overlay.

Fairy Night Effects - 2 Insert the grass and several trees along the lower edge. I used two kinds of ready brushes for this.



Represent the design now, which will be situated inside the eye. I combined a ready design and a butterfly's picture. To separate the butterflies from the background they are situated, just mark them out with Polygonal Lasso Tool and cut them out with Edit ? Cut (ctrl+x). Insert them on a new layer: Edit ? Paste (ctrl+v).



The butterflies need to be discolored: Image ? Abjustments ? Desaturate
(shift+ctrl+u). Increase their brightness and contrast, using Edit ? Abjustments ? Brightness/Contrast.



Make up now a design with a ready brush and butterflies. Copy the layer and apply Filter ? Blur ? Gaussian Blur. Merge the blurred layer with that one where it is situated the design itself, applying Layer ? Merge Down (ctrl+e). Change the layer's type on Multiply.



Take a sky's photo now.


Fairy Night Effects - 3 Make it darker and contrasting, using Image - Adjustments ? Curves (ctrl+m)



Cut it out along the eye's line with Polygonal Lasso Tool.



Change the layer's type on Multiply. Take a ready brush now, imitating the marble veins and cover the entire picture with it. Cut the eye's orifice.



Change the layer's type on Soft Light. Take the next instrument: Brush Tool and picture with it many points of different sizes.




Apply to this layer Filter ? Blur ? Blur. Copy it several times and blur out each of them, setting different radius with Filter ? Blur ? Gaussian Blur.



Then apply to each of the new layers one more filter: Filter ? Blur ? Motion Blur. Merge all the layers that we've got, making use of the next command: Layer ? Merge Down (ctrl+e).



Add the same way in some places several stars' accumulations.


Finished!
