I have a picture that was taken in direct sunlight. It has a circular sun glare on one spot. The looks like a tanish transparency. I can see through the flare to the actual picture. Is there a way to remove the flare?

It would help if you could post a sample of the picture--Regards,Robin [Redbreast]
 
Normally, these things can either be removed or fixed up a little so they don't show so much. Post it.

This is a small one. But when enlrged it's very obvious.

It is a circular flare about half way up the sunstreak in the water on the left side.

I have tried that. But when I try to print it in either 8x10 or 11x14 you can see the difference. Although it's not that obvious in yours.

A quick dab of the clone brush!

This is a very easy fix. You must simply not have the proper software or you just haven't developed the skill for it yet. Keep trying, it should be possible for you at any skill level, if you try enough.

If you just simply can't do it, post the full size image and one of us would be glad to fix it for you.

 
Did you use the rubber stamp?

When I try the rubber stamp the picture looks unatural. You can see the difference in the area. What are your recommendations?

Alton,

When you have rubber stamp selected, run the Opacity down to about 12%. Get a brush a little bigger than the spot and stamp around the area (try NOT to stamp in exactly the same place) 5-10 times. Alt for a different sample place and stamp over the spot again, another 5-10 times. Repeat as necessary til it blends in well. Work the stamping at at least 200 to 400% view so you can see what you're doing.

The trick is to do a little at a time, and over time a very natural result will appear.

Good luck
Mitch
 
Thanks, I will try that.
