DW · Air and depth of field

Dust & Weather

Let the air become visible.

Airborne dust, falling snow and rain, with density, scale and focus chosen for distinct depth layers.

Creative example

Where it works

  • Dust in a shaft of light
  • Snow in an outdoor portrait
  • Rain across an outdoor scene

Placement

Across separate depth layers, with clear space around the face.

In the edit

  1. 01

    Choose a particle size that matches the distance from the camera.

  2. 02

    Use Normal blending with the native alpha; keep small details distant and softer particles near the lens.

  3. 03

    Match direction, mask the face and reduce density before adding another layer.

Watch for

Identical sharp particles at every distance, or snow moving in conflicting directions.
