Have you ever taken what you thought was a killer landscape photo only to get home and find it unusable, ruined by the dreaded lens flare?
Some lens flare is good, think of those light rays emanating from the sun.
Some lens flare is bad, like the big balls of color in the photo above.
Would you like to know how a few simple steps taken while in the field, combine with a few equally simple steps taken during post processing can pretty much do away with lens flare?
Check out my article on Craftsy.com where I show you how to go from this…
…to this,
By giving lens flare the finger.

Thanks!
beautiful!
realizing that the wrong
finger has been used 🙂
Finger, thumb, whatever gets the job done. 😉 I’m actually thinking of making something like a popsicle stick with a small disc on the end of it, something a little easier to mask out of the final image.
Yea, I Love lens flare! Beautifully portrayed by you. Stunning photos.
Thanks, me too! The “good” lens flare anyway.
wow, thanks and simply love the way you have explain in details how to use the Photoshop to correct the flare.
I like lens flare! 🙂
Great tips in your article on how to get rid of it (for those times when you don’t want it).
I do too, sometimes. For those times it completely ruins an otherwise good image though, it’s got to go!
