im relatively new to photoshop (and this site), i have an image of a harbour in failling light, and at the end of the pier there is a red light on a beacon. i know you can buy filters that put star points on a light source (one of which i dont have).
i was wondering if it can be done in photoshop and if so how?!

okay i've had a good practice at putting stars and twinkles on everything...i can see it might be a handy thing....
however, i think i'll purchase a filter as i dont seen to make them look very 'natural' if you know what i mean
thanku for help
