Method you are using is ok, I mean the screen blend mode, but the lens flare you want to blend just will not work because its cut on the edges. You can search the Internet for free lens flares or:

1. Create new layer
2.Fill it with black
3. Go to filter / render / lens flare and set it as you need
4. Then set the layer blend mode to screen

Hope it helps.

I completely agree with revenart. The also make some nice Lens Flare brushes.


However, if you must use this image of the lens flare......

Place the the lens flare layer above the layer you wish to blend it with.

With the lens flare layer selected, hit Cmd/Cntrl + T to enter free transform.
Using the transform handles, fit the lens flare layer to layer below it.

Set the lens flare layer to 'screen'.

Looks terrible.

I don't know what happened to the images in my previous post, but I added them back.
