Lens Flare

[rightmovephotography]

I screwed up, I admit it.  The boy in moms lap was "squirmy".  When I looked at the back of the camera, I saw the flare above dad, I can clone stamp that not a problem.  I did not notice the flare in the grass.  I dont think I can clone that.  Help?

Nah, don't worry about cloning.  Just use this Levels layer:

• R 110/1.00/255
• G 75/1.00/255
• B 60/1.00/255

Holy cow batman!  Is it just experience that tells you those numbers or is it covered in the color portion of the levels class?

I'm reading through some of these old posts to learn! I read the levels-eyedropper lesson from the link above, in which you say to use the white eyedropper for that example, but if the background was dark to use the black. Do you ever use the gray one for this type of work? or did you use the black one? Thanks!

Never the grey one.  It behaves terribly.

But yes, often the black one too.
