Here’s an example where I used
this very effect on a movie-poster
design as a special light effect.
I even added a Drop Shadow
layer style. In the Layer Style dia-
log, I set the Drop Shadow to a
light color, the Opacity to less
than 10%, and the Blend Mode
to Dissolve, yes Dissolve. This cre-
ated the effect of small particles
around the glowing flares.
Be sure to experiment with
different types of flares and
glow colors. These can be eas-
ily catered to your images. You
can also get extremely dramatic
angles by modifying the Camera
settings in the Properties panel
(Window>Properties).
