Re: Fog in PS

Go the lateral thinking route and you'll find a much simpler approach. Rather than applying fog, take away from the original. Put a blank layer at the bottom, fill with a very light grey, you can also use white, doesn't matter for this technique.

Now, using a very soft and large eraser set to about 4%, erase the picture with smooth strokes, pressing harder and softer as you go as this will vary the effect. You'll see the mistiness appearing before your eyes.

If you do this as a layer mask rather than directly to the picture, just paint on with black to erase areas gently as above and you can paint white back in again if you have gone too far or made a mistake.

Cheers,
Rob
