Soft light blending

The Soft light blending belongs to the lightening blendings. The result image will have a lighter tonality than the source images.

The Soft light blending calculates the following simple formula for each pixel of each color channel:

CR = power(CB,power(2,(2*(0,5-CT))))

where CR is the intensity of the color channel in the blending result within 0..1 range.

CB is the intensity of the color channel in the bottom image within 0..1 range.

CT is the intensity of the color channel in the top image within 0..1 range.

power raises its first argument to the power specified by its second argument.

No parameter belongs to this effect.

The Soft light blending is used to create lighter scenes after blending.
