Colored Lens Flare Tutorial
This tutorial will show you how to change the color of your regular headlamp flare or HID flare to a stylized color of your own.

Step 1

Take a large high resolution image. Create a lens flare on the image and then tap Cntrl Z removing the flare. Create a new layer and then fill it black.


Step 2

In the new layer create a lens flare. The lens flare will appear in the exact location that you had created in the original image that you removed using the CNTRL Z option.


Step 3

Now go back to the original image and do another lens flare and then repeat the process of using the CNTRL Z option and then return to the new layer and use filter / render / lens flare. The new lens flare will be in the position of the light from the original image.


Step 4

Now change the second layers mode to screen which will remove the black from the image.


Step 5

Now you can open the image / adjustments and HUE SATURATION window and move the slider to the desired color that you would like the flare to be. In this case it is green.


Step 6

You can now adjust the levels of the second layer that contains the flares. This can create a brightened or more sullen effect as seen in the image above.


Step 7

Go back to the original layer and open the filter / render / lighting effects and create you desired darkness for the layer allowing more light to the front of the car, as that is where the headlights are.


Step 8

The desired effect should look something like this.
