When most people hear the word “Noise”, they immediately think of whatever music those darn teenagers are listening to these days, but in Photoshop, noise is actually nothing more than a whole bunch of little dots. Photoshop has a filter built specifically for adding noise to an image, and by sheer coincidence, it happens to be called the Add Noise filter.Use the Amount slider in the middle of the dialog box to adjust the amount of noise that’s being added. There’s no specific amount to add for this effect, we just need a lot of noise.
At the bottom of the dialog box, select the Gaussian option, and way down at the very bottom, select the Monochromatic option, which will give us little black and white dots for our noise instead of the default red, green and blue dots:This brings up the Levels dialog box. We’re going to use these sliders to not only remove much of the noise but also to brighten the noise so that our snowflakes appear white and not some dull gray color. First, to brighten the noise, click on the white slider below the histogram and drag it to the left until it’s just past the point where the right side of the histogram slope begins.
It may be close to Winter and some of you may already have experienced snow. But it not, you can create your on Winter Effect. Having this sort of control over Photoshop shows that not only do you have one of the main pro skills but that you could alter your work into any sort of atmosphere.
