Creating Rain Drops Using Photoshop.

See the images below........

Today let's try to make something special like an artificial rain drop using our Adobe Photoshop. Just follow the simple steps. Hope that you will enjoy this .
Ok ready?
- Open an image. Better take a picture of a greenish leaf. So that it will looks more attractive.
- Create a new layer named “Drop1” and select the Elliptical Marquee Tool and make a selection which looks like a drop on the leaf.
- Set the foreground colour as “Black” and the Background colour as “White”.
- Click the Gradient Tool
- Then drag the mouse from the left side of the selected oval to the right.
Now Set the blending mode for the layer to “Overlay”
Also Enable the Inner Shadow and set the values for opacity 75, Angle 158, Distance 5, Spread 0, Size 5
Similarly you can make more drops
For making the curved drops select the drop layer and go to Filter>>>Liquify and make appropriate shap and hit OK
- Save the Picture as a JPG File

PhotoShop: Creating snow or rain

Creating snow or rain
Here’s a multiuse technique that you can use to create falling snow or rain (as shown in Figure):

1. Add a new layer to your image by clicking the New Layer button in the Layers palette.

2. Still in the Layers palette, change the layer’s blending mode from Normal to Screen. Because this technique uses a separate layer, you can consider it to be nondestructive (you can always delete the layer later), so you don’t have to work on a copy of your image. But it’s always a good idea to work on a copy, just in case.

3. Choose Edit>Fill to fill the layer with black. Because the layer’s blending mode is Screen, you won’t see the black fill.

4. Add Noise to the layer. Use the Noise>Add Noise filter to add some variation to the layer. Use
Amount: 20%, Distribution: Gaussian, and mark the Monochromatic check box.

5. Enlarge the noise with the Crystallize filter. Use the Pixelate>Crystallize filter to turn the little noise into larger chunks. Use Cell Size: 3 for small snow or rain; try 7 or 10 for larger
flakes. You can also apply a slight Gaussian Blur to increase the size.

6. Sharpen the edges. Using the Unsharp Mask filter, sharpen until the snowflakes have distinct
edges. Use Amount: 100%, Radius: 2, Threshold: 0. When you create rain, use Amount: 40%.

7. Apply a Levels adjustment. In the Levels dialog box, drag the middle slider about halfway to the left; then drag the left slider slowly to the right until you see the amount of snow or rain that you want. Afterward, if desired, you can apply the Motion Blur filter to the falling snow/rain. And, of course, you can add a layer mask to control visibility.
