Portrait photo processing: PS Analog Large aperture Dim background effect

There are many methods in the post-processing of portrait photos, in which the background of large aperture simulation is most commonly used, and the effect is most obvious and beautiful. Here we will illustrate by concrete examples. Original artwork (see Figure 1)

The first step is to open the original artwork in Photoshop, copy the layers, and set the layer bar on the layer you want to copy. Then the menu bar layer-〉 to duplicate the layer (see Figure 2)

The second step, the following layer of Gaussian blur, select the following layer in the layer bar, and then filter-〉 blur-〉 Gaussian blur (see Figure 3), in the pop-up dialog box adjustment parameters: Radius 5 (see Figure 4)

In the third step, select the top layer and change its layer blending options to "overlay" (see Figure 5)

Step fourth, see the effect save photo. (See Figure 6)

This method is very simple and practical, after finishing a little artsy shots effect. Readers can expand on this basis, adjust the opacity of the layer, or change the layer to soft light, color filter, and other modes, you will get different effects, or even multiple layers with different transparency overlay, perhaps an unexpected harvest Oh! The mystery is left to everyone to develop themselves, to think!
