Google+ rolls out tool to add `snowflake effect` to photos

Washington: Google+ has rolled out a special `snowflakes and sparkles` effect tool to make photos even better this holiday season.

The search giant added two new Auto Awesome features to bring some lighthearted fun to the holiday pictures. According to The Verge, if a user uploads a photo containing something that sparkles, like a Christmas tree or chandelier, Google+ will automatically make those light sources sparkle by converting the image into an animated GIF. Another feature adds a falling snow effect to photos that prominently feature the snow in the picture, the report added.
