Only one light leak can be applied and that may be all that is needed in your image. There are 13 different section types that can be added as often and in any order as needed. It was then saved as a preset since I liked the effect of how the two leaks blended. To add the two Light Leaks in this image, the Light Leak section was added twice, once for each leak added.

By clicking up in the top right-hand corner in the box that says New and than Add Adjustment, all kinds of choices are opened up. Presets are just a guidelines for effects that can be added, but this is not where the power lies in this plugin. In the above image, the plugin was used to only add two stacked light leaks. A Blue Luminosity Curve was created and an S curve was used to increase contrast. One of Kim Klassen’s older beige textures was then added and set to Multiply blend mode. Added one of my textures on top set to Soft Light blend mode at 62% layer opacity. – click link for settings at bottom of blog.) Some Mixers and Regular brushes were used to smooth out the background and paint the actual petals. Then the image was taken into Photoshop and Topaz (for website see my Tidbits Blog‘s sidebar) Impression was opened using one of my presets (SJ Watercolor like effect on bldgs. In Lightroom just the Basic exposure and contrast sliders were adjusted. I would recommend your trying one out if you get a chance. There is a newer version of this lens, but mine seems to still work well, especially on macro shots. This flower was shot using with my Lensbaby Composer at F/4 using a Macro +4 Lens, which is why it was so soft and wispy looking. This week I am showing my pretty little Oleander flower growing in my yard.
