I find myself making the Brilliance lower to try and anticipate the brightness in Photoshop.įlood 2 is a relatively inexpensive plug-in $33 US) for the flexibility it provides in creating water reflections. The image appears darker in Flood 2 than in Photoshop.The Memory Dots are nice, but I have to remember to save it and then find which dot where the image was saved. Work as a Smart Object in Photoshop, this will make it easier to re-edit images.There are only a couple of places where I think Flood 2 could improve. You can spend hours adjusting the sliders and rolling the dice to create beautiful water reflections. Overall, Flood 2 is an excellent plug-in for creating reflections and water filled images. Flood 2 will automatically remember the last settings from when it was launched but this way you can go back and re-edit multiple images. Since Flood 2 does not work with Photoshop Smart Objects, once you return to Photoshop and you don’t like what you’ve created, you have to start over. I would recommend saving your current settings in a dot. Hover over a dot to see a preview of what is stored in that dot. Click on a full (colored) dot to retrieve settings.

This is where you save your presets.Ĭlick on an empty dot to save your current settings. At the bottom of the Flood 2 window, there is a semi-circle of white dots. Flood 2 has an interesting way to save presets called memory dots.
