Vignette

I wanted to do something different with the photos, so I decided to use Adobe Photoshop software to do photo editing. I stumbled on instruction from various sites. They weren’t clear and too long to follow. Therefore, I gathered all the information and simplified into my own. Here is my instruction. I hope this will help you beginners out there.

Adobe Photoshop 101: VIGNETTE style (softening the edge of the photo).  According to webster online, “a photograph whose edges shade off gradually.”

    Original photo: beforeKhmerstar_MonikaDanh                     After

Instruction: 
layer1 
1>Create a layer from  layer pallet.
Click on
‘create new layer’ icon
as shown on the red arrow.

buttons 

2>Click on paint bucket tool.
Then fill the new layer with white paint.
(Notice the white screen).

opacity 
3>Decrease the layer opacity around 80 or 85 percent(or as desire).
Now, background picture starts to appear in faded white.

ellipticaltool 
4>Click on Elliptical Marquee tool
and drag from top left to bottom right
of the back ground picture.

selectbotton                  value
5>Go to Select>> then click on Feather botton as shown above. Enter a value of 50 (depends on the size of your photo). Then click OK.
>>Next go to Edit>> then click on Clear (to get rid of the elliptical).

Now, you should be able to see the result of the photo. *Note* If the opacity is too white or too low, go back repeat step 3, opacity. Decrease or increase  the percentage as you want.
