Our last Wallpaper of the Week was an image I had created using Pixelmator, and I really liked the outcome. The best part about it was that it was pretty easy to accomplish in Pixelmator, but I decided for perspective's sake to create the same effect in Photoshop. The process is easy as well, but with a few extra steps. As in the previous tutorial, I will show you how to create a digital bokeh effect, but this time in Photoshop. Step 1 Create a new document in Photoshop. Step 2 Select the Ellipse Tool (U), and create a circle. Step 3 Select the ellipse and go to Edit>Define Brush. Step 4 Go to Window>Brushes (F5). Step 5 Before we start painting our bokehs let's create a new layer and fill it with a colorful gradient. Step 6 Let's create a new Folder in our Layer Palette. Step 7 Go to Filter>Blur>Gaussian Blur. Step 8 Create another layer and paint more brushes. Step 9 Create another layer and repeat the previous step, this time however use a much smaller brush.

Video tutorial: Control tonality with Photoshop's Black & White filter
With the Luminosity blending mode, a Black & White adjustment layer becomes a simple way to independently control the brightness and contrast of image elements according to their respective colour content. This turns it into a tone equaliser of sorts, enabling you to control how the tones are distributed and balanced in an image. It’s a great way to create the slightly surreal looks often used in glossy adverts and on CD covers. 01 The first step is to load a colourful image. 02 Next, add a Black & White adjustment layer. 03 You should notice while dragging the mouse that you can raise and lower the brightness of the sky independently of most other image elements. 04 The subject in your image is the most important element, so you need to make sure you’re using the broadest range of tones to describe the skin. 05 Sometimes you get areas in an image where the tonal effects are unwanted.
