Fence "haze"

[phylliskeithphotography]

Damien,

Any suggestion for "haze" from shooting against a metal fence? Attached is a screenshot of the photo after the RAW PROCESSING WORKFLOW.

Camera info: ISO 200; 70-200mm @100mm; f/4.5; 1/800s

I can't see the specific fence lines, so I am unable to:

1. use a brush to "dehaze," per the YouTube.

2. clone, per your response in this forum about fences.

Thank you in advance for any advice you can offer. Yes, I will be retaking your levels class in the near future to get back to editing photos.

There's no quick way to do it.  You just have to add a Levels layer and pull the black slider in aggressively (suggest to about 90 for this one) then invert the mask, then paint on patiently with a 10% brush.

Thank you. I'll give it a go.
