Blur focus

Step 1

Open an image you wish to add a blur focus effect to.




Step 2

Make a selection around the area you wish to add a blur focus to. You can either use the polygon lasso tool or the quick mask tool for creating a selection.




Step 3

Inverse the selection by choosing Select > Inverse and you should get the following image like below.




Step 4

Select Filter > Blur > Gaussian Blur and add a 3 or 4 pixel radius, depending on the size of your image.



You should now have a blur focus effect.
