BLUEGRADE

Zoom

Stretch detail outward around a chosen center, creating a radial sense of movement.

When to use it

Try a clear subject surrounded by lines or a repeated pattern.

How to control it

Amount blends the blur; X and Y place the center; Size changes its reach.

A starting approach

Place the center near the point you want to emphasize before increasing the strength.

Combine with intention

Choose one main direction first. Compare with the effect reduced or off before adding another treatment. Check the exported photograph as well as the preview.
