Put the colors of the rainbow on your pictures with the Prisma-Flares
Place the 35 overlays in this package on your images, set the blending mode and shape and position the prismatic flares - for a play of colors that creates atmosphere.

Why prism flares? - Because they add character to your scenes!

If the backlight in photographs is split into its constituent parts, this creates effects that are often undesirable. On the other hand, these refractions of light enhance many an image enormously and, depending on the subject, create a look that ranges from summery to autumnal. If there is also a pool, a waterfall or a beach on the shore in the picture, the colorful spots suggest that light-refracting water droplets are involved. Either way, the prism flares , which you can easily incorporate with the overlays in this package, emphasize the rather random character of your shot. The perfection of the scene is reflected in the fact that it appears imperfect!

Apply, change mixing mode, adjust: How to use the flare overlays

The prism flares light up in the JPG images (6,000 px × 4,000 px or 7,592 px × 5,304 px) in all the colors of the rainbow against a black background. To incorporate them into your photo, place them as photo overlays on a new layer over your photo. Set the blend mode to multiply negative so that the black background disappears. Now position the flares, adjust their size and change their shape as required using distortions and deformations. Of course, you can also use several prismatic flare overlays and combine them with other lighting effects.
