iOS – Rays – Temporarily Free

With thanks to our great tipster Danny on the news that Rays is temporarily free in the iTunes app store. Rays allows you to create stunning and realistic light ray effects quickly and easily.

Known as volumetric lighting in computer graphics or crepuscular rays in atmospheric optics, this dramatic effect adds polish and style. Since the rays are only added to highlight areas, they have the effect of passing through objects and add a third dimensional quality. Add shafts of light streaming through clouds, rays filtering through a forest canopy, beams of light on a foggy night or rays shooting out from text. Rays adds a striking and dramatic quality to any image.
