Some Of My Images Used As Book Covers - before and after Part 2

 Book Covers - Before and After Part 2 Some time ago I created a post showing some of my images used as covers for books.  I am always curious how my wok is used, sometimes I am disappointed, but most of the time it is a pleasure to see the designs and the usage. So here we go: In these cases my original image hasn't been changed that much, most of the time only a crop and of course title and author.  Sometimes it is hard to make out my own design as you can see in this image:  My images are available for licensing through my agencies Trevillionimages   and   Arcangel Images or find something on my home page. Thanks very much. Dirk

Gentle Snowfall Overlay Freebie & how to apply it - Updated Dec 2024

I re-edited this post and added new links to download the texture:

Last post before Xmas,

over here we had our first taste of snow last week. At the moment it's back to normal, meaning rainy weather and roughly 5°C - 10°C...
I had the chance to take some wonderful winter landscapes in the sun and also shot while it was snowing quite heavily.
Still had no time to process some of these shots....

I thought it is about time for another freebie, so I made a snowfall overlay that is quite easy to use.

It looks like this:

How do I use this? 
Overlays like the one above work best with blending modes like

- Screen
- Lighten
- Color Dodge

in programs such as Photoshop, Luminar Neo or Affinity.

In these modes the  color black doesn't have any effect and only the light/white parts show up in your picture. 
Just play around and see what works best with your picture.


Recently I used this overlay on my picture 4 colors of winter. Please move over the picture to see a before/after of this picture.

Hope you find this texture useful.
