Step 129

For the right layer:

Create another new layer and repeat the application of fire, but now do not blur it.

Step 130

Now add shine and light the fire on the wings of butterflies. Create a new layer. Take the brush with these settings. Choose a color № ffb400 Remember this layer is above the rest. Now carefully draw the fire and the wings of butterflies. Do not paint over them completely. Green shows where I was putting color!

Step 131

Change the blending mode for this layer. In the Layers list, select the mode Saturation.

Step 132

Create new layer and repeat the application of fire. Take Brush Tool (B). Set these settings: Size: 75px, Hardness: 0% Opacity: 60%, Flow: 100%. Choose a color # ebb032.
Add a mask to remove the group part of the lamp with the same brush that you did fire.

    This looks horrible, most of them has said it to be beautiful, but very frankly it seems like everything has been forced upon to put together without matching itself.
    Art is not a mere claustrophobic thing, it should be simple but elegant. There are many brilliant Photoshop manipulation which looks beautiful, true many things have been imposed but there is a perfect balance in them. I am very sorry, that this manipulation is not impressive nor very attractive, mere imposing of glitters or emphasising of too many characters with rainbow colours will not make everything beautiful, hoping to get more creative and good manipulative PS from you.
