So I was looking through the App Store and found an app called Hyper, I liked the style of the app so I clicked on it and saw the banner had this really beautiful blurred colors effect, I wasn't sure what it was called but I knew I wanted to recreate it.

I had some trouble, unfortunately I can't put screenshots but what I tried to do to achieve the same look was use a soft brush on a black background and use a guassian blur to sort of make it similar, it did not work, it looked very weird and not as structured as the photo.

Does anyone know how to achieve this look?

That looks like a picture of the aurora borealis, better known as the northern lights.

A few minutes editing an image of the northern lights and we have this (it's not perfect, the original image wasn't very good and I spent no more than a few minutes editing it):

  1. Take your image of the northern lights:

  1. Add a Color Balance adjustment layer to bring out the blues:

  1. Add a dark blue to transparent gradient to flatten the lower parts of the image:

  1. Add some final level adjustments and some white type on top:
