Step 28
Then use Gaussian Blur and add Radius 8.5 pixels to it to make a blur.
Step 29
Select Hue & Saturation tool, add following value to it to look more natural light.
Step 30
To create reflection of fort light on water then duplicate the layer and place it on lake water, to spread it use Smudge Tool and spread it with flow of water.
Step 31: Learn to create rain
To creating rain, first take a new layer and fill Grey color (# 989897) to it as shown in an image. And keep it above all layers. :
Step 32
Then add noise to the same layer from Filter -> Noise -> Add Noise by keeping its amount 33. Keep the settings of Noise panel as shown in an image:
Step 33
After that from Filter -> Blur -> apply Motion Blur to that layer like as shown in an image.
Step 34
Now use Soft Light blending mode then your output will look like this:
Step 35
Finally, to make rain flow more natural, add mask to that same rain layer. After that use Brush tool by keeping low Opacity: 35% and add some black color patches to it.
Create Foggy climate on the Lakeshore
If you observe the lake shore area after raining, then you will find some foggy climate there.
Step 36
So to create it, on a new layer, by using Brush Tool (Keep Opacity low 35%) just paint brush around the lake like as shown in an image:
Step 37
After that you have to select that fog layer and apply Gaussian Blur to it. Keep Radius 71.1 pixels.
Step 38
And then add noise to it. Keep values and settings as shown below:
Step 39
Then again, use Gaussian Blur tool and keep Radius 9.5 pixels and finally select Vivid Light blending mode to blending that fogs with background color.
So friends, we have done it now! Our dramatic night lake view is ready to use. See our final output:

I think stuff about tips are fab
I just found this in my email and took a good look at it on the website. Is this "awesome"?
No, it is NOT. Rather, it is error-filled.
1. Lower right-hand corner. That's the reflection of the light source, PROBABLY the Sun. Oh, but you have another light source in the top-center called the moon.
2. That light reflection off of the water IN NO WAY resembles the dark, forbidding rainy skies above. OOPS!
3. The reflection of the castle off the water is reasonable. But, where is the reflection of the two dark birds well above the castle, which would clearly be in the bright reflected skies above the castle?
There's a really CRAP sunset picture making the rounds, where the moon has replaced the sun, and it's been passed around in different hues, and it only has a very serious problem, which is that the clouds are passing behind the moon. In other words, our planet will be destroyed soon because the moon is in our atmosphere.
But a ZILLION LOONS out there say "awesome!" And this is as bad as that.
Nice one
Buen tutorial, muchas gracias. Pero el archivo PSD en zip, esta dañado y no se abre.
Saludos
Great tutorial, but there are no files in the PSD file to download; it's an empty file of 0 bytes.
Kine Melien Haugsrud test dette ??
absolutely could not agree more
Awesome!
The Lake View zipped file is empty.
I can't even see the rain =/
wow Thank you for this great tutorial. Gave me lots of ideas and direction.....great job

Please fix the download link
Step 24 is so amazing! thank you for sharing! <3
great tutorial.i learnt a lot...but being a novice it took me some time to locate all the commands since the tutorial was not very clear.but i got an amazing output.thanks again author :-)
como sempre ....dos melhores a ensinar e a progredir com o photoshop ,,, meus parabéns
To the people saying this is a bad tutorial, you must be noobs.
I don't read most of the instructions, I go on by looking at how this is being created and do it my way.
You can do one thing in may forms on photoshop.
Its very amazing steps to create lake view by using photoshop.I am wondered to see this post.Everyone should read this specially designer to get inspirations.thanks
Epic fail?? I don't think so. Great ideas, apply them to your work however you see fit. I thank the person that took time to lay this out! Time out of their day, without being paid a dime. That's not a fail at all. Thanks for sharing!
Something get wrong at step 7/8 with the gaussian blur, my images whole image is blurred and not only the trees etc.
However it´s a good tut
kull stuff
this is cool...kudos..kudos again
can we add rain dropping effect into the lake, i think it will look more realistic can you please tall me how can we add that effect ?
This Is A Very Good Tutorial. But The Final Image Doesn't Look Same As The First One On The Top. I can't say Much Cause Am also New To This Software. Anyways G8 Job
I think this is awesome. Thanks.
OMG now this is what I call wicked talent.. I'm just speechless on how you've put everything together in such a beautiful harmony. splendid
This Fails so bad I am not even kidding ;)
if you don't like this tutorial so what make your own one
we're humans we make mistakes
Good job man, we are waiting the best from you.
wow, very artistic
I like this kind of photo manips....very nice imaging. With more efforts to show the effects of the raindrops on the water surface, this work would be perfect.
My "Hue & Sat" levels only go to +180.....perhaps I'm missing something?
Do you have "Colorize" selected?
I like these tutorials, however I often get stuck and there seems to be no recourse to get clarification. For example on steps 5 and 6 I have a bit of a problem duplicating your steps. I follow your steps to the letter but clearly am doing something wrong and not getting the correct result....or anything resembling it. I'm using CS4 extended. Thanks
this might be really late but what did you do to get around that step? I'm having issues.
raaly i like this tutorial
It really befuddles me why people post such negative comments. These people that create these tutorials are taking the time out of their lives to assist us novices, not hold us by the hand. I think he did a very good job.
Wow, this is such a fail... by the first two commentators! Do you SEE any other reflection than the castle's? No. You might make the lake darker, but the texture of the sky is not seen, so there is no reflection. And where the moon's reflection lands wouldn't be in the view of the lake. Also, can you make something better than this, without tutorials? No, that's why you're here. You can always make changes yourself if you don't like, idiots.
you're an idiot commentator!
hey, you know what, why don't you show us your own works and/or tutorials? if you see an high level of fail here, I'm pretty curious to look at your astonishing works
it's EPIC FAIL because the sky and the moon is not reflected in the water! :(
hahaha...level of fail is too high...how come raindrops doesnt affect the lake water surface?
Because its photoshop not reality!
