If we look in my <a href=\"\/basics\/layers\/layers-panel\/\">Layers panel<\/a>, we see the photo I've opened sitting all by itself on the <a href=\"\/basics\/layers\/layers-panel\/\">Background layer<\/a>:<\/p>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pe-images.s3.amazonaws.com\/photo-effects\/cs6\/surreal-motionscape\/photoshop-layers-panel.gif\" alt=\"The Layers panel in Photoshop showing the Background layer.\" width=\"254\" height=\"264\" \/>\n<div class=\"image-desc\">The Layers panel showing the photo on the Background layer.<\/div>\n<p>To convert it into a Smart Object, go up to the <strong>Layer<\/strong> menu in the Menu Bar along the top of the screen, choose <strong>Smart Objects<\/strong>, then choose <strong>Convert to Smart Object<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pe-images.s3.amazonaws.com\/photo-effects\/cs6\/surreal-motionscape\/convert-to-smart-object.gif\" alt=\"Choosing the Convert to Smart Object command in Photoshop CS6.\" width=\"214\" height=\"129\" \/>\n<div class=\"image-desc\">Going to Layer &gt; Smart Objects &gt; Convert to Smart Object.<\/div>\n<p>Nothing will seem to have happened to the image in the document window, but if we look again in the Layers panel, we see that Photoshop has renamed the layer from <em>Background<\/em> to <strong>Layer 0<\/strong>, and a small <strong>Smart Object icon<\/strong> now appears in the bottom right corner of the <strong>preview thumbnail<\/strong>, letting us know the layer is now a Smart Object:<\/p>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pe-images.s3.amazonaws.com\/photo-effects\/cs6\/surreal-motionscape\/smart-object-icon.gif\" alt=\"The Background layer has been converted to a Smart Object.\" width=\"254\" height=\"204\" \/>\n<div class=\"image-desc\">The Background layer is now a Smart Object.<\/div>\n<h3>Step 2: Apply The Motion Blur Filter<\/h3>\n<p>Next, we'll create the initial motionscape effect using Photoshop's Motion Blur filter. Go up to the <strong>Filter<\/strong> menu at the top of the screen, choose <strong>Blur<\/strong>, then choose <strong>Motion Blur<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pe-images.s3.amazonaws.com\/photo-effects\/cs6\/surreal-motionscape\/choose-motion-blur.gif\" alt=\"Selecting the Motion Blur filter in Photoshop CS6.\" width=\"149\" height=\"124\" \/>\n<div class=\"image-desc\">Going to Filter &gt; Blur &gt; Motion Blur.<\/div>\n<p>This opens the Motion Blur dialog box. We want to create a sense of vertical motion, so first set the <strong>Angle<\/strong> to <strong>90&deg;<\/strong>. Then, to add the actual blurring effect, drag the slider at the bottom of the dialog box towards the right to increase the <strong>Distance<\/strong> value, in pixels. As you drag the slider, you'll see a live preview of the results in the document window. The goal here is to add enough blurring to create a good sense of motion but not so much that you've blurred everything beyond recognition. The nice thing is that because we're applying the filter to a Smart Object, it will become a <a href=\"\/photo-editing\/smart-filters\/apply-smart-filters-cs3\/\">Smart Filter<\/a> which will allow us to go back and change the setting later, so don't worry too much about this initial setting. I'm going to set my Distance value to around <strong>90 pixels<\/strong>, but your value may be different depending on the size of your image:<\/p>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pe-images.s3.amazonaws.com\/photo-effects\/cs6\/surreal-motionscape\/motion-blur-dialog-box.gif\" alt=\"The Motion Blur filter dialog box.\" width=\"347\" height=\"398\" \/>\n<div class=\"image-desc\">Setting the Angle to 90&deg; then dragging the Distance slider.<\/div>\n<p>Click OK to close out of the dialog box. Here's my image with the initial motion blur applied:<\/p>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pe-images.s3.amazonaws.com\/photo-effects\/cs6\/surreal-motionscape\/image-motion-blur.jpg\" alt=\"The photo after applying the Motion Blur filter.\" width=\"640\" height=\"430\" \/>\n<div class=\"image-desc\">The photo after applying the Motion Blur filter.<\/div>\n<p>If we look in the Layers panel, we see the Motion Blur filter listed as a Smart Filter below the image:<\/p>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pe-images.s3.amazonaws.com\/photo-effects\/cs6\/surreal-motionscape\/motion-blur-smart-filter.gif\" alt=\"The Layers panel showing the Motion Blur Smart Filter.\" width=\"254\" height=\"178\" \/>\n<div class=\"image-desc\">The Layers panel showing the Motion Blur Smart Filter.<\/div>\n<h3>Step 3: Select The Smart Filter's Layer Mask<\/h3>\n<p>Applying the Motion Blur filter evenly to the entire image isn't the most interesting effect, so let's limit the blurring to just the lower parts of the photo. We can do that easily using a <a href=\"\/basics\/layers\/layer-masks\/\">layer mask<\/a>. In fact, Photoshop automatically adds a Smart Filter layer mask for us, which we can select by clicking on the mask's <strong>thumbnail<\/strong> in the Layers panel. A <strong>white highlight border<\/strong> will appear around the thumbnail letting you know the mask is now selected:<\/p>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pe-images.s3.amazonaws.com\/photo-effects\/cs6\/surreal-motionscape\/smart-filter-mask-thumbnail.gif\" alt=\"Selecting the Smart Filter layer mask in the Layers panel.\" width=\"254\" height=\"178\" \/>\n<div class=\"image-desc\">Clicking the Smart Filter layer mask thumbnail.<\/div>\n<h3>Step 4: Select The Gradient Tool<\/h3>\n<p>Next, select Photoshop's <strong>Gradient Tool<\/strong> from the Tools panel along the left of the screen:<\/p>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pe-images.s3.amazonaws.com\/photo-effects\/cs6\/surreal-motionscape\/photoshop-gradient-tool.gif\" alt=\"Selecting the Gradient Tool from the Tools panel.\" width=\"76\" height=\"144\" \/>\n<div class=\"image-desc\">Selecting the Gradient Tool.<\/div>\n<h3>Step 5: Choose The Black, White Gradient<\/h3>\n<p>With the Gradient Tool selected, click on the <strong>gradient preview bar<\/strong> in the Options Bar along the top of the screen:<\/p>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pe-images.s3.amazonaws.com\/photo-effects\/cs6\/surreal-motionscape\/gradient-preview-bar.gif\" alt=\"Clicking the gradient preview bar in the Options Bar.\" width=\"310\" height=\"74\" \/>\n<div class=\"image-desc\">Clicking the gradient preview bar.<\/div>\n<p>This opens the Gradient Editor, with a selection of preset gradients to choose from at the top. Select the <strong>Black, White<\/strong> gradient by clicking on its <strong>thumbnail<\/strong> (third from the left, top row), then click OK to close out of the Gradient Editor:<\/p>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pe-images.s3.amazonaws.com\/photo-effects\/cs6\/surreal-motionscape\/photoshop-gradient-editor.jpg\" alt=\"Selecting the Black, White gradient from the Gradient Editor in Photoshop.\" width=\"466\" height=\"241\" \/>\n<div class=\"image-desc\">Selecting the Black, White gradient.<\/div>\n<h3>Step 6: Drag Out A Gradient From Top To Bottom<\/h3>\n<p>With the Gradient Tool in hand, the Black, White gradient selected and the Smart Filter layer mask also selected, click near the top of the image to set a starting point for the gradient, then with your mouse button still held down, drag down towards the bottom of the image. Press and hold the <strong>Shift<\/strong> key on your keyboard as you're dragging to make it easier to drag in a straight vertical line. When you get near the bottom of the image, release your mouse button to set the end point for the gradient, then release your Shift key:<\/p>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pe-images.s3.amazonaws.com\/photo-effects\/cs6\/surreal-motionscape\/drag-gradient.jpg\" alt=\"Dragging out a black to white gradient on the Smart Filter layer mask.\" width=\"640\" height=\"430\" \/>\n<div class=\"image-desc\">Dragging out a black to white gradient on the Smart Filter layer mask.<\/div>\n<p>When you release your mouse button, Photoshop goes ahead and draws the gradient on the layer mask. The area along the top of the image now has no blurring applied to it at all, while the area along the bottom has the blur applied at full strength. The area in between is the transition area where the blur effect gradually increases as it moves towards the bottom of the image:<\/p>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pe-images.s3.amazonaws.com\/photo-effects\/cs6\/surreal-motionscape\/image-blur-mask.jpg\" alt=\"The image after drawing the gradient on the Smart Filter layer mask.\" width=\"640\" height=\"430\" \/>\n<div class=\"image-desc\">The motion blur is now limited to the bottom area of the photo.<\/div>\n<p>Even though we can't see the black to white gradient in the document window, we <em>can<\/em> see it in the layer mask's thumbnail in the Layers panel:<\/p>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pe-images.s3.amazonaws.com\/photo-effects\/cs6\/surreal-motionscape\/mask-thumbnail.gif\" alt=\"The Smart Filter layer mask thumbnail showing the black to white gradient.\" width=\"254\" height=\"178\" \/>\n<div class=\"image-desc\">The gradient is visible in the Smart Filter layer mask thumbnail.<\/div>\n<h3>Step 7: Re-Adjust The Motion Blur Amount If Needed<\/h3>\n<p>Thanks to the power of Smart Filters in Photoshop, it's easy to go back at this point and change the amount of motion blur if needed. Simply <strong>double-click<\/strong> on the filter's name (<strong>Motion Blur<\/strong>) in the Layers panel:<\/p>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pe-images.s3.amazonaws.com\/photo-effects\/cs6\/surreal-motionscape\/click-motion-blur.gif\" alt=\"Double-clicking the Motion Blur Smart Filter in the Layers panel.\" width=\"254\" height=\"177\" \/>\n<div class=\"image-desc\">Double-clicking on the Motion Blur filter.<\/div>\n<p>This will re-open the Motion Blur dialog box, allowing you to adjust and fine-tune the blurring amount by again dragging the slider at the bottom. I think I'll increase my Distance value quite a bit, from its original setting of 90 pixels up to 158 pixels, giving me a much more pronounced blurring effect. Again, your amount may be different depending on the size of your image:<\/p>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pe-images.s3.amazonaws.com\/photo-effects\/cs6\/surreal-motionscape\/motion-blur-158.gif\" alt=\"Increasing the Distance value in the Motion Blur dialog box.\" width=\"347\" height=\"405\" \/>\n<div class=\"image-desc\">Increasing the Distance value while keeping an eye on the live preview in the document window.<\/div>\n<p>Click OK when you're done to close out of the Motion Blur dialog box. We can also adjust the <strong>opacity<\/strong> (the transparency level) of the Motion Blur Smart Filter. Double-click on the <strong>Blending Options icon<\/strong> to the right of the filter's name in the Layers panel:<\/p>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pe-images.s3.amazonaws.com\/photo-effects\/cs6\/surreal-motionscape\/blending-options-icon.gif\" alt=\"Double-clicking on the Smart Filter Blending Options icon in the Layers panel.\" width=\"254\" height=\"178\" \/>\n<div class=\"image-desc\">Double-clicking on the Motion Blur filter's Blending Options icon.<\/div>\n<p>This opens the Blending Options dialog box. Here, we can change the filter's <a href=\"\/photo-editing\/layer-blend-modes\/intro\/\">blend mode<\/a> and it's opacity level. I'm going to leave the  blend mode set to Normal, but I'll lower its Opacity value down to <strong>80%<\/strong>, which will allow some of the original image to show through the blur (this is completely optional - feel free to leave these blending options alone if you're already happy with your effect):<\/p>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pe-images.s3.amazonaws.com\/photo-effects\/cs6\/surreal-motionscape\/smart-filter-blending-options.gif\" alt=\"Adjusting the opacity of the Motion Blur Smart Filter.\" width=\"361\" height=\"357\" \/>\n<div class=\"image-desc\">To lower the opacity, click on the small right-pointing arrow, then drag the slider.<\/div>\n<p>Click OK when you're done to close out of the Blending Options dialog box. Here's my effect after increasing the motion blur and lowering its opacity:<\/p>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pe-images.s3.amazonaws.com\/photo-effects\/cs6\/surreal-motionscape\/image-filter-edited.jpg\" alt=\"The image after adjusting the motion blur amount and opacity.\" width=\"640\" height=\"431\" \/>\n<div class=\"image-desc\">The image after adjusting the motion blur amount and opacity.<\/div>\n<h3>Step 8: Crop Away The Edges<\/h3>\n<p>The only remaining problem is that the Motion Blur filter tends to leave rather ugly artifacts around the edges of an image. In our case here, if you look along the very bottom of your effect, you'll most likely see that it doesn't look quite right. Exactly how \"not quite right\" it looks depends on how much blurring you've applied, but in any case, let's quickly crop away the edges of the image to clean things up.<\/p>\n<p>Select the <strong><a href=\"\/photo-editing\/crop-image-cs6\/\">Crop Tool<\/a><\/strong> from the Tools panel:<\/p>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pe-images.s3.amazonaws.com\/photo-effects\/cs6\/surreal-motionscape\/photoshop-crop-tool.gif\" alt=\"Selecting the Crop Tool from the Tools panel.\" width=\"78\" height=\"147\" \/>\n<div class=\"image-desc\">Selecting the Crop Tool.<\/div>\n<p>With the Crop Tool selected, change the <strong>Aspect Ratio<\/strong> option on the far left of the Options Bar to <strong>Original Ratio<\/strong> so we keep the photo's original aspect ratio when we crop it:<\/p>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pe-images.s3.amazonaws.com\/photo-effects\/cs6\/surreal-motionscape\/original-ratio.gif\" alt=\"Setting the Crop Tool's aspect ratio to Original Ratio.\" width=\"410\" height=\"73\" \/>\n<div class=\"image-desc\">Changing the aspect ratio to Original Ratio.<\/div>\n<p>Then, click on any of the <strong>corner crop handles<\/strong> and, with your mouse button held down, drag it in a short ways towards the center of the image to resize the cropping border. Press and hold the <strong>Alt<\/strong> (Win) \/ <strong>Option<\/strong> (Mac) key on your keyboard as you're dragging a crop handle to resize the cropping border from its center so all four sides of the border move at the same time. Continue dragging the corner handle inward only until the unwanted area along the bottom of the image falls outside the cropping border:<\/p>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pe-images.s3.amazonaws.com\/photo-effects\/cs6\/surreal-motionscape\/cropping-image.jpg\" alt=\"Resizing the cropping border.\" width=\"600\" height=\"411\" \/>\n<div class=\"image-desc\">Resizing the cropping border to crop away the problem area along the bottom.<\/div>\n<p>When you're ready, press <strong>Enter<\/strong> (Win) \/ <strong>Return<\/strong> (Mac) to crop the image, then press the letter <strong>V<\/strong> on your keyboard to quickly select the <strong>Move Tool<\/strong>, which will remove the cropping border from around the image (as long as the Crop Tool is active, the cropping border will remain visible). And with that, we're done! Here, after cropping the image, is my final motionscape result:<\/p>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pe-images.s3.amazonaws.com\/photo-effects\/cs6\/surreal-motionscape\/photoshop-motionscape-effect.jpg\" alt=\"A vertical motionscape effect created in Photoshop CS6.\" width=\"640\" height=\"430\" \/>\n<div class=\"image-desc\">The final effect.<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<style type=\"text\/css\">\n.ads-bottom { width:300px; padding-top:16px;padding-bottom:16px; }\n<\/style><div align=\"center\"><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-6601556224092982\"\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\n<!-- 300x250 page bottom responsive -->\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle ads-bottom\"\n     style=\"display:block\"\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-6601556224092982\"\n     data-ad-slot=\"2879809098\"\n     data-ad-format=\"rectangle\"\n\t data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script><\/div>\n<aside>\n<p>And there we have it!
