PS to the photo plus a gorgeous halo effect

Effect chart

The first step: open a photo of Maggie Q, as shown in Figure 01. You can choose their own material pictures, but pay attention to choose the character's clothing and background are darker photos, so we make the halo effect will be more obvious.

Step two: Look at the photo above, we found that the photo is a little "gray." So before we add a halo effect to a photo, we have to do a simple retouching of the photo. In the Layer palette, select the thumbnail of the background layer and click the right mouse button to select Copy Layer from the pop-up shortcut menu and get the background copy layer. Perform a filter-blur-Gaussian blur command on the background copy layer with a blur radius of 5 pixels. Then change the layer blending mode of "background copy" to "overlay", as shown in Figure 02. Compared with the original, the picture becomes more layered.
