Hey all. Not sure if this is possible… I’m on Photoshop CS5 64-bit.
I have a flat image that I want to apply a diffuse glow to. However, I would like to have the original image on one layer and the output of the filter on a separate layer, as opposed to all on the same layer.
I realize this may not be completely possible so here’s an alternate that could work but I’m not sure how to do. Could I take the original image and "subtract" it from the new image with the diffuse glow?
The ultimate goal is to be able to display the original image on a bottom layer and then applying the diffuse glow on a top layer without redrawing the entire image.
Thanks for the help!
