This is really fascinating, but couldn’t this be simplified by using the frequency separation filter and apply those effects to the high frequency layer? I can see the benefit of being able to make adjustments to the blur of the low frequency layer during the process useful however.
Thank you! You need to have the low pass layer, just using the high pass will not work as it will probably sharpen the original image (or when increasing the blur too much, it will do a soften/smoothing). Hope this makes sense.
@@Graphicalfinity Thanks for the response! I can't figure out how to apply the gaussian blur to layers and then group the invert with it. I also can't apply an 'Average' merge

Very interesting!
Thank you!
Is there a way to do this in Photoshop?
I am pretty sure it should work on PS too.

Rather a lot of trouble to take to apply a super-subtle effect that probably no-one will notice.
It's a lot more relevant when creating 3d computer SFX for movies, because the rendered frames have to match the "film" colors and resolution.
