Rain, fog, and moody skies can turn an ordinary photo into one that tells a story, but only when the weather looks like it belongs there. In this live session, Dylan adds rain, fog, and clouds to real images using the Effects tab, Local Adjustments, and Brushes, then blends each layer with Masking & Selection so the weather sets the mood instead of looking pasted on.
What you’ll walk away with:
How to build rain, fog, and clouds with the Effects tab as your starting point
