“Sleeping Girl in Tub” Photo Manipulation

Blending mode: Soft Light
Opacity: 40%

Step 8: Give the image a dreamy feel

In this step, we will make the image look dreamy by giving it a luminous effect. To start, right-click on any layer and click “Flatten Image”. Clicking on this will flatten all the layers into one image.

Now, duplicate it (Ctrl/Cmd + J); click on the duplicated layer and then go to Filter > Blur > Gaussian Blur.

Input the following:

Radius: 16.0 pixels

After that, you’d see that your image is really blurry; so to make it glowing, change the Blending Mode of the blurred (duplicated layer) to Lighten and set its opacity to 25%.
