Hello,
This idea did not work the way I had hoped but I "played" for
an hour (should be in bed at 4:00am) and dang it I was going to post something
for the effort !.
As a rough idea, I made 4 eliptical circles with dropshadows
the same colour as the flashlights then breaking apart the dropshadows and
deleting the circles, leaving only the dropshadows. I then made 4 more
(smaller), all with white dropshadows, broke them apart and removed the circles
as well. The smaller white ones were placed on top of the coloured ones (aligned
to their left side) creating basically a cresent of each colour. I then gave
each of the new cresent shaped circles a 74% transparency and positioned /
aligned each to the flashlights.
It did not work because where the "hot spots" overlap you
should see only the white and a better far edge fade is needed. It is also not a
proper representation of how reflected light reacts The
"Camera>Spotlight" tool in PP works better but I could not change the
"background" to white.
Hey Richard ("Fluid").....your the expert....how'd ya do it
?

I need to show this led finger light with a white background. But the light
needs to be on and show a little color on that white background. If I just use
a brush and white out some area around the light hitting the table then it
does not look very good. I want to make a great looking photo to put on the
front of this website. I would appreciate any help at all. There is a photo
now on the front of this website www.lducompany.com of the finger light
but they want me to change it to have a white back ground but show the color
light. Thank you.
