Vignette is nice way how to keep viewer´s eye inside the picture. To create it add new Ajustment Layer Levels on the top of your layers. Set Input Levels on 0; 0,48; 255 and press OK.

Grab the Gradient Tool (G) and fill the Thumbnail of the layer with solid black color.

Now grab the Brush Tool (B), pick white color and paint over the edges of the picture.


Step 24 - Adding Big Feathers

Another way how to lead viewer´s eye is using of lines. We use this principle by adding big feathers. They also add impression of spatiality.

Drag the Brush Tool (B), select feather brush, pick dark blue color and paint feathers as you can see on the preview picture. Make feathers which are closer bigger and these in the distance smaller.

Now we will make the feathers out of focus. To do that you need to add blur effect. Go to Filters > Blur > Gaussian Blur and set Radius on about 1,8 px. Press OK.

After this step your picture should be similar as it´s shown bellow:
