Using the Bloom effect
Bloom is the halo effect caused principally by bright lights in the scene. In real world, the camera lenses we use can never focus perfectly, but this is not a problem under normal conditions. However, when there is an intensely bright light in the scene, these imperfections are perceptible and visible, and as a consequence, in the photo that we would shoot, the bright light will appear to bleed beyond its usual borders.
Getting ready
To fully understand the usage of this effect, it will be good if you have an interior with a daylight scene or a scene with some artificial lights.
