A Different Side of Glow
During this webinar I focused heavily on incorporating Glow into your Workflow and the importance of setting the stage for Glow so it can be the star of the show! I used several images to achieve various Glow effects.
- Using Glow as a Fractal Art generator to make compelling Animal Portraits
- Using Glow, Impression and Restyle to make awesome Abstract works of art
- Using Glow and Impression to boost a landscape.
- Using Clarity to set the stage for Glow to make awesome amazing Night Cityscape images
- Using Glow to create a brilliant glowing effect in any room.
Here are the final example images in their respective order.

A terrific job demonstrating practical usage of Glow on Webinar with a lot of ground covered. Thank you for making the PDF file available..trying to recall the steps covered today eluded me and having an outline to follow until the processes stuck is extremely helpful.
Thank you! I appreciate the feedback very much! I figured the PDF would help tremendously, I had so much ground to cover. I guess I did that to myself, I just wanted to show how versatile it was! Thank you for attending.
Great job Blake! I enjoy watching you work a picture. The way you combine creativity and technology inspires me to push myself. Thanks again!
Thanks for attending! I appreciate the feedback.
Hi, Blake
Question on the PDF about using Glow, specifically the photo with the large room and lighted Christmas tree. What effect in Glow did you use? At the top right of the Glow screen where the name of the effect is shown, the PDF shows ‘Room Glow’. I don’t have that effect in my version of Glow and it’s the latest version of Glow. What am I missing?
No problem! That is a preset I created. The settings are in the PDF. You can recreate it and call it Room Glow if you’d like as well.
Another excellent webinar, Blake. Now I just have to watch it 2 or 3 more times to really understand what you did.
I learn so much from you. Thank you
Thanks, Denny! I may have to watch it again to. Sometimes I just get in the zone!
I really enjoyed the webinar yesterday and am excited that you have joined in the Topaz presenting team. Two of my favorites together! 🙂 Thank you also for the PDF. I cannot tell you how very much I appreciate this extra step. Watching videos (even multiple times) cannot replace having written steps as I work on a project. Thank you! 🙂
I can’t believe this was my 13th Webinar! Geez! I did my first in early 2013. Time flies!
You are very welcome for the PDF, I knew this would be a whirlwind of info so that helps!
Fantastic webinar even for me as a german with limited English. The PDF is worth gold to follow the webinar again step by step. Thank you so much for that helpful work. Merry Christmas and a successful New Year!
Thank you! That is great to hear. I do appreciate your attendance and your feedback. Merry Christmas to you as well!
Blake loved the webinar. I tried to take advantage of you gift to us. When I click the button ” Download the Actions and PDF with settings. I got the PDF, but instead of actions I got a 2 min video showing me how to add “Shared Library” in Photoshop. What am I missing?

That is weird! I just downloaded it and have both the Actions and the PDF in there. I have no idea what could be amiss here!
Download works fine for me.
Thanks as always for the great learning tools.
In your original Topaz seminar presentation, there was a segment on using Glow with portraits. I cannot find that segment in your pdf recap. Am I missing something?
Thank you
Nope not missing something. I stumbled upon that about an hour before the webinar after I was all prepped. The idea is the same as the room glow, workflow #5. Sorry about that!
i felt the same way when i first heard and seen the program , what can i possibly do with this , too crazy for my taste , not untill i attended the webinar and saw what you figured out to use it for that i saw the potential . thank you and happy new year .
