 Hello everybody, welcome back to another Adobe Photoshop tutorial. This one, I'm going to show you how to create this cool, soft focus effect. And it'll take about 60 seconds. Let's start from scratch. Load up your image like I've got here. The next step, go to the top, go to Filter, go to Blur Gallery, and then select Iris Blur. When you select Iris Blur, it's going to open up this sort of not spherical. It's more like cylindrical or kind of like a conus shape. You'll see here that I can move it around and also that I can shape it so I can pull in the edges, for example, so that I can fit it around her face. So there we go, something like that maybe, and then I would pull it in a little bit. You see what I'm doing here? I'm just kind of eyeballing it, so to speak, but I'm just making it so that we're going to just sort of blur her face, but not too much around it. So maybe something like that. Now, here's the next step on the right side here. You're going to see under Iris Blur, it defaults to 15 pixels. Let's just jack that way up so you can see the effect. There you go. I mean, that's way too far, but let's go with like 100 pixels or so, 99 pixels. Now, look at this. What you can do is you can pull these pieces in, and that adjusts the blur in or adjusts the blur out. It's kind of like blurring or feathering the blur, but this way you can sort of dial it in as you see fit. Also, for example, I don't want her hair to be blurred, so I'm going to hold down the Option key on a Mac or the Alt key on a PC, and I'm going to pull this one little dot in and leave the other ones where they are. So I can pull this, I can pull them all in, I can pull them all out, or I can just start pulling them in one at a time. So there you go. Now, the last step here is I can go ahead and adjust the blur as you see fit. So there we go, something like that, and maybe that doesn't look quite right. I'll move this out here, and you'll see here that I can very slowly create the exact blur that I'm looking for by just doing that. That's all there's to it. Thanks for watching.
