Here is one I found that really looked cool and fun. I found it at www.youthedesigner.com a spot I have checked out a few times before, a definite site to check out. It has been a while since the last post, I will be trying to post more often so stay tuned in.

Here is the original and I think it’s a nice realistic looking rain cloud, pretty cool.

This is what I came up with I changed it up a little made the sky darker and I also added a couple more clouds. The tutorial was very easy to follow and had very few steps. I finished it up quick and added a new brush to my brushes palette.  I think you could use this as part of a bigger piece maybe have the the rain falling on top a scene below, maybe that will be my next tutorial? You could also add some lightning that was something that came to me after I had finished and started this post.

I have been missing a few days of tutorials, so maybe I should call it “A Tutorial Every Couple Days”, but “A Tutorial a Day” just sounds better. I had started this one a few days ago but I had to go off somewhere so I only had a chance to really glance at it. So I decided to go back and do it all the way through. I found it at photoshoptutorials.ws go check it out it’s very easy and will only take a couple of minutes.

Here is the original picture they started with, pretty dark.

Then boom a whole lot of sunlight!

Here is my original not as dark as theirs but good enough for this tutorial.

Then bang sunshine in the morning! This tutorial is very simple and only takes about 2 steps. It’s nice to add a little something to those ordinary pictures. I think maybe a little smaller shine would work well also, but the big burst of light is pretty awesome. I think it gives the picture more drama, they are not so boring. Overall a very easy tutorial that can be very useful for certain images, not every image but for certain ones.
