Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between optical and anamorphic lens flares? Optical flares are circular halos and light rings caused by internal lens reflections. Anamorphic flares are the horizontal blue streaks seen in cinema camera footage — they give a dramatic, movie-like quality to images.
Can I resize these brushes in Photoshop? Yes. Use the [ and ] keys to decrease and increase brush size, or adjust the size slider in the brush options bar at the top.
