Photoshop Water Reflection - Add A Realistic Water Reflection
In this Photoshop photo effects tutorial, we're going to learn how to easily add a realistic water reflection to any photo. It's a very easy effect to create and you can add it to any photo you like, although it tends to work best with images that don't already contain water in them.
We'll be using a simple filter and a displacement map to create the water ripple effect, and a Hue/Saturation adjustment layer to give our water a little color.
Here's the photo that I'll be working with throughout this tutorial:
Photoshop Water Reflection: The original image.
And here's what our image is going to look like after adding the water reflection :
Photoshop Water Reflection: The final result.
Let's get started.
Step 1: Duplicate The Background Layer
With our image newly opened inside Photoshop, we can see in the Layers palette that we currently have one layer, the Background layer, which contains our image:
Photoshop Water Reflection: The original image on the Background layer in the Layers palette.
We need to duplicate the Background layer, and we can do that using the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+J (Win) / Command+J (Mac). Now when I look in my Layers palette now, I can see that I now have two layers - my original Background layer on the bottom and a new layer, "Layer 1", above it which is my duplicate:
Photoshop Water Reflection: Press "Ctrl+J" (Win) / "Command+J" (Mac) to duplicate the Background layer.
Step 2: Add More Canvas Space To The Bottom Of The Document
We're going to add our water reflection below the image, so let's add some canvas space to the bottom of our document to make room for our reflection. To do that, go up to the Image menu at the top of the screen and choose Canvas Size. This will bring up Photoshop's "Canvas Size" dialog box. The easiest thing to do here is to add twice as much canvas space as what we currently have, but we only want it to appear at the bottom of the document, not above it or on either side, so we need to tell Photoshop exactly where we want this extra canvas space to go.
First, enter 100 for the Height and set the measurement to percent, as circled in red below. Leave the Width option set to 0. Then make sure the Relative option is checked, which tells Photoshop to give us 100% more canvas space than what we already have. Below the "Relative" option is a 3x3 grid of squares. This is where we tell Photoshop where we want to place our additional canvas space. Click inside the square in the middle of the top row (again as circled below). This tells Photoshop not to place any of the extra canvas space above the document and instead to place all of it at the bottom:
Photoshop Water Reflection: Add more canvas space using the "Canvas Size" dialog box.
Click OK to exit out of the dialog box, and Photoshop will add the extra canvas space to the bottom of the image:
Step 3: Flip The Top Layer Vertically
In order to create our reflection, we need to flip our image upside down, so let's do that.
With the top layer selected in the Layers palette, go up to the Edit menu at the top of the screen, choose Transform, and then choose Flip Vertical.
Photoshop will flip the image upside down in the document:
Photoshop Water Reflection: Go to Edit > Transform > Flip Vertical to flip the image on the top layer upside down.
Step 4: Drag The Flipped Image To The Bottom Of The Document
We need the flipped image to be at the bottom of the document, so grab your Move Tool from the Tools palette, or press V on your keyboard for the shortcut:
Photoshop Water Reflection: Select the Move Tool.
Then, with the Move Tool selected, click inside the document and drag the flipped image down to the bottom until the top of it is lined up with the bottom of the original image above it. Hold down Shift as you drag to make sure you drag down in a straight line:
Photoshop Water Reflection: Drag the flipped image down below the original.
Step 5: Add A New Blank Layer
Now that we have our flipped image in place, we can begin to create our water ripple effect. First, we need to add a new blank layer at the top of the Layers palette, so with "Layer 1" still selected, click on the New Layer icon at the bottom of the Layers palette:
Photoshop Water Reflection: Add a new blank layer to the document.
Step 6: Fill The New Layer With White
We're going to fill our new blank layer with white. If white is not currently your Background color, press D on your keyboard, which will reset Photoshop's Foreground and Background colors, making black your Foreground color and white your Background color. Then use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+Backspace (Win) / Command+Delete (Mac) to fill the new layer with the Background color (white). Your document will be filled with solid white.
Photoshop Water Reflection: The entire image is now filled with white.
Step 7: Apply The "Halftone Pattern" Filter To Create Black And White Horizontal Lines
Go up to the Filter menu at the top of the screen, choose Sketch, and then choose Halftone Pattern. This brings up Photoshop's Filter Gallery (in Photoshop CS and higher) set to the "Halftone Pattern" filter options on the right, with a large preview of the effect on the left. We're going to use this filter to add a series of black and white horizontal lines to the image. These lines are going to become our water ripples . The more lines we have, the more ripples we'll have. First, we want to make sure we're creating lines and not dots or circles, so set the Pattern Type option to Lines. We control the number of lines by adjusting the Size option. Lower values give us more lines, since we're lowering the size of each line, and higher values give us fewer but thicker lines. I'm going to set my Size value to 7, which I think works best for my image. You may want to experiment with this value on your own. The Contrast option below it determines how sharp the edges of the lines are. Lower values give you softer lines, white higher values give you hard edge lines. Set this value all the way to 50 to give your lines sharp edges. We're going to soften them ourselves with the Gaussian Blur filter in a moment:
Photoshop Water Reflection: Adjust the Halftone Pattern filter options to create a series of black and white lines through the image.
Click OK when you're done to exit out of the dialog box, and Photoshop will fill the image from top to bottom with your black and white lines:
Photoshop Water Reflection: The image is now filled with black and white horizontal lines.
