Bloom

Light bleeding out of the bright parts of the layer below

Light bleeding out of the bright parts of the layer below, spreading wide and keeping its colour, so a highlight glows rather than merely brightens. A dark neighbour never dims it. Streak stretches the glow sideways into the flare an anamorphic lens puts on every point of light.

Rendering cost: heavy. A raymarch or escape-time loop per pixel: cap the pixel ratio, or keep it to a card rather than a fullscreen background. How to tune it

Tune Bloom free. Take it when you are ready.

The background itself, with your settings already saved in, ready to drop into your site — this one and the other 60. Paid once, no subscription, and every background added later is included. What you get.
