Photoshop Elements Tip #1





How to focus on your subject

Create focus on your subject by adding a soft blur to the background.

You can right-click on the photo that is completely in focus and save it to your computer to practice.

  1. Open image
  2. Use Selection Brush Tool
  3. In the toolbar, change from Selection to Mask
  4. "Paint" the subject of the photo with the mask
  5. Change back to Selection in the toolbar
  6. You will see "marching ants" around the image
  7. Choose the Select menu and then choose Inverse
  8. Choose Layer menu - New - Layer via copy
  9. Select the background layer in the Layers palette
  10. Choose Filter menu - Blur - Gaussian Blur
  11. Set a Radius of 2 and click OK
