clipped from www.ephotozine.com Adding stage lighting to a photograph in Gimp How to add stage lighting effects to a photograph in Gimp - Michael Bates shows us how to add stage lighting to a photograph. If you've ever had a picture of a musician that could benefit from looking like a concert image then you can recreate a concert's lighting quite easily using Gimp. Even if you have taken a picture of someone playing a gig, sometimes it looks more like they're rehearsing in their bedrooms rather than performing to a crowd. This method can therefore be used both to remedy photographs that didn't turn out how you hoped, or to try and convince people that you really did play that gig in front of a screaming throng of paying customers.
