   Render the clouds, then, with the cloud layer selected, go to the Hue and Saturation window. Tick the “colorize’ box and then simply select whichever colour you want

   But you’ve probably forgotten all about this since you posted that comment 4 months ago

   Thank you so much. . . .
   I feel excited to try this on a compostion I am doing. . . The way you have explained is easy to understand, quick and effective. And it has been nice to see your kind features. . . I am positevely keeping it in my files, for future uses (sometimes I forget about them, je, je, )

   Gavin,
   I would like to use this technique to simulate light filtered through a cathedral’s stain glass window. Any suggestions how to get the light rays to realistically pickup the colors of the individual glass elements from the window?

   Absolutely ingenious Gavin,
   I love all of your video tutorials. Particularly this one because I was in need of precisely this kind of effect. Thank you so very much!

   Big fan Gavin. I noticed your sky here was entirely B&W. Obviously this was necessary because the cloud filter is black and white. Is there any way to create this effect without black and white sky (blue and white for example).

    That’s lovely! I love those sunbursts, they’re amazing. I would not have guessed this was Photoshopped, but you did a great job. I’m typing a lot but I’d be speechless in real life.
    When I was a kid I called the rays “rays of heaven”. That’s my favorite type of sky ^^
    And I always found Photoshop confusing beyond all comprehension, but your tutorial made it look like a breeze. Thank you! I do have Elements though (which I don’t get any more than normal Photoshop to be honest haha).

    Instead of making a mask, simply erase the clouds using a soft rounded rubber
