Photoshop Tutorial - Adding Rain to any picture

Hi there, it seems that a lot of people don't know how to easily add rain to your picture. Well, just follow this tutorial!


Step 1:
Open your document with your desired size. Fill it with black. 
Now go to Filter→Noise→Add Noise. Click Monochromatic on. Set your amount to something between 70 - 150 %. The higher your number the more rain. 




Step 2:
Now go to Filter→Blur→Motion Blur. Edit your Angle and Distance until you like it.
When you did that, go to Image→Adjustments→Levels. Pull the black arrow more to the right to get better/less rain.


Step 3:
Press Ctrl+A to select everything, and then press Ctrl+C to copy everything. Now past it on your picture, and put it to screen (Other Blending modes like Lighten, Color Dodge and Linear Dodge changed the lighting of the picture or the rain got different colors).

Viola!
