There are a lot of discussions about fake reflections in photos. Some say you need to capture the reflection as it is. But what if there is no reflection, just grey water that is blurred because you used a 10 stop filter? Well, then the artistic person in me pops up and I make a fake reflection to make the image more interesting. Is it wrong, or is it artistic?
I know it’s kind of impossible to capture a reflection like you see in the image below. But without it, it looks just dull.
By using the new blur gallery in Photoshop CC 2014, your blurring options are just about limitless. I suggest to play with them and test a few blur options to see what works best for you.
