Adding a border

For our task we had to apply a vignette to the image to make it look more presentable.
Before the image, this just  looked like a plain photo, no border, it looked abit dark as-well. To make it look more presentable i would need to change the brightness of the image that way i will be able to see the impact the border makes.




Once you have selected your image, select the brush tool, preferably have a soft brush it gives it a better texture.

Try to have a big brush that way it is easier to get a better border, it takes less time.
The opacity of the brush would have to be 100% for the border to have a good effect.


Once you have selected your brush, hold down shift and begin to go across the page, holding shift will keep the line straight, rather than being all wobbly.

To begin to blur you image, go to filter, blur then gaussian blur, this will allow you to change the sharpness of the corners.
The blur makes the image look much more presentable.




The image below is the final image, if you are not happy with the border, then go to gaussian blur and this graph will pop up you can change the intensity of the lines to suit you.
