Glow This tool adds glow auras on the picture. The effect finds the brightest are on the image and adds it bright halos. So it turns out that the brightest area shines. This effect is used to mitigate the general form of picture as well as to give it a "romantic" view or create a fog effect. This effect looks good on night photos reinforcing glow halos around light sources. Sliders Description 1. Amount - the effect power- increases the strength of the glow around found areas of high brightness. 2. Smoothness - Halos dimensions. Moving the slider to the right increases the size of the halos. 3. Brightness - This slider determines the surrounding areas where any auras will be created. Moving the slider to the left only areas of maximum brightness …show more content…

This effect can be a powerful tool for creative photo processing. 2. When you move the Brightness slider to 100 and increase Amount you can get the effect of mist (misty day) in the picture. 3. By increasing the Amount power, detail in bright areas are lost, just "highlighted". Top & Bottom Lightning This tool is a simulation of an analog filter to specify different brightness in the picture vertically - Graduated Neutral Density Filter. This effect is widely used in landscape photography. The effect flexibly controls the brightness of the top and bottom of the image. This enables, for example, to low the brightness of the sky and raise the brightness of the foreground. Thus image can be significantly improved without picture layers and masking. Sliders Description 1. Top - the brightness of the top. To the left it is darker, to the right - brighter. 2. Bottom - the brightness of the bottom. To the left and to the right: darker - lighter. 3. Blend - the transition bandwidth between the Top & Bottom. The higher is the Blend value, the wider is bandwidth of a smooth transition between the value of the Top to Bottom. In the leftmost position of the mixing band it turned into a very narrow strip with a sharp transition between the two
