Here is one way. Darken the image, draw a white ellipse at the top left corner on a black background that is rotated 45 degrees. Blur it. Then add it onto the darkened image with some transparency to control its brightness.

Unix syntax

Code: Select all

convert taj_orig.jpg +level 0x70% \
\( -clone 0 -fill black -colorize 100 \
-fill white -draw "rotate 45 ellipse 0,0 200,25 0,360 " \
-blur 0x25 -alpha set -channel a -evaluate set 65% +channel \) \
-compose plus -composite \
