ADD A VIGNETTE! (all images MUST have this!)
A vignette is a darker border - sometimes as a blur or a shadow - at the outer edges of a photo.
Use the Add a vignette filter to reduce the saturation at the edges of your image compared to its center and add a little dimension!
Make sure you have made the layer a Smart Layer. You will see the icon on the thumbnail!
