PS7 question

[cmattdvc]

I asked this in the software section but got no answer so I thought that maybe someone over here could/would help

Does anybody know of a plug-in or a way to get "pro-mist" type looks or "star" effects in PS7, I just bought a 24-70 L and don't want to invest in 77mm filters if I don't have to.

Thanks,
Matt

Or you could go to www.andromeda.com and buy the photographic filter pack...

Star Effect - Very customizable: number of points, how big, etc.

With Filter:

Pro-Mist - I'm assuming this is some soft focus filter. Andromeda calls it "VariFocus" and you can set the intensity, etc. Better results than Gaussian Blur...

Englishman,

That's pretty sweet too... care to share? All I found in PhotoShop that came close was Filter -> Render -> LensFlare, but that wasn't the effect I was looking for.

How'd you do these?

Hey, that's really cool! Thanks!

Goes to show that I use about 5% of PhotoShop's power, if that.

The problem was that about half of the 5% wasn't in Elements... sneaky Adobe! :)
