You learn by looking at great images. You can also learn by looking at good images. Couple that with reading comments on great images, and really on the good image comments. If all we say was the best in the world, we'd never get that much better. Most would quit because there is no hope.
So we look at examples like images you like, ask about how they did, there is RARELY an easy one click button solution to being as good, so we take the info provided and learn it. That is what needs to happen here.

Yeah, totally understand. However, let me explain a little bit better. I read the original post and I am curious how to create the effect myself. I remembered one of my friend said he know how to create the effect. I take a snap shot. I then try to create the effect by doing what he had told me. The snap shot is not professional and the method did not create the effect. I don't think they serve any purpose here. Next time I will take a better picture with good lighting and try again.
