he Blur Gallery in Adobe
Photoshop is different from the Blur
Filters (go.pcworld.com/blrf)
we’ve covered previously (both are
found in Photoshop’s Filter menu). When you
select Blur Gallery, Photoshop displays
another drop-down menu with five Blur
options: Field, Iris, Tilt-Shift, Path, and Spin
Blur. These filters are much more interactive
than regular Blur Filters, with live previews
and on-image controls, including options to
create Bokeh effects.BLUR GALLERY TOOLS
To use Blur Gallery features, open a file, then
use the Lasso tool or the Magic Wand to
select the area you want to smooth or soften.
It works best if you cut out the selected area,
paste it back in as a new layer, then ensure
that this layer is active in the Layers panel. TheHow to use Photoshop Blur Gallery
