Vignette Effect
A vignette is an effect in design and photography where an image fades off from the center into a typically black background. It adds a subtle change of mood to the photo while drawing the viewer's eye towards the center. And because of its simplicity, there are a number of ways to achieve this effect in little time at all. From Gradients to Adjustment Layers and more, add this quick effect to your arsenal of photo editing techniques.
Check out this quick video to learn three different methods for creating a simple vignette.
