In this Adobe Photoshop tutorial, we're going to learn how to add beams of sunlight through trees, which is not only a great way to make an image look more interesting, it's also a lot easier to do than you might think, as we'll see.

This tut will help a beginner with some basics - but the final effect is VERY unrealistic. I have photographed many a corpuscular ray sky and have never seen the light behave like you show in the tut. The light is not diffused nearly enough and is far too sharp and would not act like a spotlight as you're showing here. You're actually doing artists a disservice through teaching a technique that does not happen in reality.

This tutorial shows how to add sunlight to any photo using the polygonal lasso tool, opacity adjustments, and layer blending modes,

With this technique you can easily create light and add it to any photo you like. Hope you like this tutorial!

Hey This tutorial is going to be about creating a very cool and slick looking sun burst effect using Photoshop. The tutorial will incorporate different layer styles and image effects to create an image that will look like the sun is bursting out. This tutorial will take quite a while. Through out this tutorial you don't have to make it look like my image. Create a design that will look good for you. We should be aiming for something that will look like this, except in wont be square. For this tutorial you will need the following: A rendition of Photoshop or similar. GraphicXtra's Custom Shape Pack 28 Embelish priced at �4, or similar. Steiner font from DaFont A cool sunset or sunrise image. I found the original image here, his page is here. Step 1) The first step is to find a suitable image. It should have a good foreground with something going on. A little bit of shadow and silhouette and importantly a sun. You can find your own in Google images or click the image below for the full version. Step 2) This is probably one of the easiest steps. Import/open your image in photoshop. Set the layer (if not already) to a normal layer and not a background layer. If is done by double clicking on the layer. It shouldn't say background as shown in the image below. Step 3) What I want from the image is more purple/red tones. This is easily done. Create a new layer and using the paint brush select a pink colour and colour in bits of the sky, clouds. Do what you feel. Step 4) Use the layer blending options to change the blending option to colour. Set the opactiy down. I've gone for around 16%. This is supposed to be subtle, so don't over do it. If you compare the image below with the original, there isn't a lot of difference. This is exactly what were are looking for. Step 5) Do the same with some purple i've added less in this time. Again change the blending options of the layer to colour and reduce the opacity. You can do this as many times as you want with different colours, just set the blend option to colour and reduce. This is the final colouring I have ended up with. You can sort of see the purple and pink layers mixed into the image. Step 6) This next step is kind of complicated. The plan is to create some light beams using the original layer. First duplicate the original image onto a new layer. We are now going to use the Glowing edges filter. This is located in Filter > Stylize > Glowing edges. Set the options as 1 and then about 11 and 15 for the next to slid...

The bitter winter will be over soon, but real, crisp sunshine is still to come. So, we thought you might like a procedure that generates sunlight. Sometimes you encounter a sad, colorless photo on your monitor. Or even in dazzling sunlight, the camera might not reproduce exactly the milieu basking in the rays. By increasing color levels and color contrast, this feeling can be emulated quite well, especially when concentrating to warmer colors. Read on to learn how. As a small gift, you can even download the executable action of the procedure at the end of the article. But still, it's worth to read it.

Before finishing, and optional extra step is to use the Lasso Tool to select and delete a jagged strip from the bottom of your "sunlight" and Clouds layers, then give the sunlight layer a drop Shadow.
