I have an image that I want to hang, framed, on a wall (in PS of course)

All is good so far but no I want to make it look as if there is a sheet of glass covering the picture with some faint sunlight reflection in places and that little glossy edge that placing a 2mm thick sheet of glass over a picture will give.

I’ve tried several approaches with no joy and am now ploughing thoguh adobe studio exchage in vain, I fear, looking for a suitable action.

Any pointers / methods would be MUCH appreciated as I am fighting a losing battle here!

Thanks,

Jon

Make 4 little squares with a small border between then, fill them with white, drop the opacity till it looks like a window reflection in the glass, use the transform toll skew to place perfectly.

After the tip of Kingdom you can also use the glas-filter to create the reflection. It’s very good to create thicker glass.
