... I've had some questions asked by a few friends on how to pull focus to a specific subject in a flat digital image... this effect, which I learned in a Photoshop seminar, does exactly that with just the right amount of subtlety... you see it used in lots of glamour advertisements or product solicitations where a depth-of-field blur is used to heighten the impact of an object, so that it feels like it's in the foreground even though in reality it isn't...

... this tutorial also demonstrates the power of using Channels, which many people stray away from because they don't understand them...

Great effect! thanks for sharing.
Very well written tutorial. I have to admit I always wondered how to do this without distorting the main subject.

Thanks so much sharing, this will come in handy. :)
