• Picture 1: Heat Can Not Stop Me

    I always wondered what it’s like to be able to control fire. When I was younger, I used to love times where there was a black out at home. It would be the only time I was allowed near fire. My sister and I would always come up with illusions and tricks to play on a lighted candle without burning ourselves...

  • Picture 2: Fishes Are Friends

    Has anyone ever asked you that if you could be an animal, what animal would you want to be and why? It’s a broad question with no right or wrong answer. I used to want to be a puppy when I was a kid because it was so adorable but...

  • Picture 3: Even In Death

    Have you ever had a déjà vu? Where you do or experience something that you felt like you have already done or experienced before? Sometimes it makes you think to yourself “hey, I’ve dreamt of this before”. And in certain cases it makes you think “hey, I dreamt I thought to myself that I dreamt this happened before”. I just like to think that those are...

  • Picture 4: Back to Nature

    When I was a little girl, I loved nature. I used to play with insects and dig up earthworms and snails. I would spend my evenings laying on the grass and watching the clouds go by. My mom and I would watch the clouds and point out shapes of the clouds that make up...

  • Picture 5: My Ultimate Childhood Fantasy

    Being a typical girly-girl when I was a kid, I used to loved cartoons like My Little Pony and Care Bears. I always wanted a unicorn as a pet and I absolutely love rainbows and stars and in fact, I still do. I always wondered what it would be like to be in Care Bear’s town or...

Tutorial: Light Rays

Light Ray

How is it done?
I have created light rays for the nature picture to create a whimsical look to the image. This can be done this way

  1. With the original image open, choose  a light yellow or white colour to create a rectangle.
  2. Go to Edit > Transform > Skew 
  3. Move the points to make the rectangle small at the top and larger at the bottom. With the shift key held down, drag the middle top point to the opening in the leaves and the bottom middle point to the ground.
  4. Go to Filter > Blur > Gaussian Blur and apple the setting shown. 
With this four simple step, you can get a light ray. Repeat the steps as many time as you want to create more light rays.
