What does the Bloom Glow effect change?

Bloom Glow diffuses bright detail into a controlled soft halo, blending the glow with a sharper base so highlights feel luminous rather than simply unfocused. The strength control determines how much of that treatment replaces the unedited appearance.

Which photos work best with Bloom Glow?

Choose Bloom Glow for miniature and tilt-shift scenes, portraits with distracting backgrounds, or motion-led poster graphics when the source has clear detail and balanced exposure. Start with a lighter setting if it contains soft source files, intricate boundary detail, or text-heavy images where additional blur would reduce readability.
