Fill the parts of the image that we need to reduce the rough, angular details. Be careful with the parts around your eyes, use the Undo function many times until you get the results you want.
Continue painting until the Smart Blur layer appears again
Smart Blur layer selection will allow users to retain the details, important components of the original image layer through distortion, change JPG, while eliminating unnecessary and rough details.
Depending on the specific situation, you should change the Opacity parameter to bring more obvious effect, besides, you can keep some details from the original JPG layer.
No need to perform too many complicated operations, we have seen remarkable effect on the photo at this time.
At this point, we only allow Smart blur layer to display on a part of the face, above is the Layer Mask layer . The white part is what we painted with white - the Brush in the previous step.
Above is the overlay, with the red part corresponding to the Smart Blur layer locked.
With some simple steps like above, we were able to make a difference to the image, still retaining the important details that have almost no effect on the surrounding components.
Go to the next example, when you have an outdoor landscape picture (for example, the image above), the JPG format often produces distorted details, the texture changes a lot compared to the original photo. .
The following way will be extremely useful if our image consists of the sky and small details attached, such as clouds, branches .
In this zoom mode, we can easily combine the smart blur layer with the details in the original JPG image. Still looking at the specifics of the branches, the sky became smoother, and the surrounding obstacles were greatly reduced.
Good luck!
