3D Transform Filter
When using this dialog box you can select the area of the image where you want to apply the 3D effect. This can be done by using the panel on the left in the dialog box. There is also a hand symbol, which helps you move the image around in the dialog box, and a magnifying glass, which helps you zoom in the image in order to view the image closerWhen selecting the options in the dialog box, you can adjust the resolution (low, medium, or high) and the Anti-aliasing (Low, Medium, or High). In the image above I deselected the display background option. That is why the background is black.
Clouds Filter
When applying this filter, a dialog box does not appear.
The clouds are created in the Photoshop program using a blend of the colors that are in the image. This type could be used to create a background for example.
Difference Clouds Filter
The application of this filter happens at once. There is no dialog box, just like in the Clouds filter. The difference is that the flower is still visible within the clouds that were created.
Lens Flare Filter
This dialog box offers the option to adjust the lens type.
In the Image above the Lens type is 50-300mm Zoom. You can adjust the brightness of the flare as well as the position of it in the image.
Lighting Effects Filter
As you can see… Things get interesting, when choosing to apply lighting effects to your image. This dialog box offers many options for one to choose from. One can manipulate:
The Style
The Light type/Intensity and Focus
Properties/Gloss, Material, Exposure, and Ambience
Texture Channel
