How do you find the leaves and how do you add the sun beams????

For the sun beams, use the fuzzy circle paintbrush and decrease the opacity. Get a light yellow color for them.

Um, if you use the select tool and select the color behind the trees, or you could do it on another layer if you use those.

I'm just wandering...Like I don't know where to find such soft brushes on either GIMP or photoshop. I mean, there is soft brushes, but not as soft as the sunbeams. I'm just wandering what kind of brush you use for that?
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
GIMP comes with those. Just click on the brush your using and then all the brushes will pop up in a little box. I use the fuzzy circle tool.

reduce the opacity to around 9 and then keep going over and over until you get the effect you want n__n
