When I returned from vacation recently I noticed that in almost all of my Mediterrean photos there is a haze. Objects up close are fine, but as the distances increase so does the have.See example below. I've tried Curves, Levels, Auto Tone, Auto Contrast, and Auto Color with little luck.
View 1 RepliesI thought USM to basically sharpen for the effect of removing atmospheric haze. I liked the technique so I built an action and used it. A while back I lost a hard drive and of course, my actions with it. So now I can't find where I got the info to start.
My memory says that it is USM at 20,50,0 but I'd like to find something like the article I based my action on.
Klattu said in a thread here on haze removal, 250,250,0. Why those numbers. I need to read what got me to this in the first place.
I'm looking for a tut. on that magic haze that I see on so many pictures today.
I know it can be done in photoshop but I don't know the right combination.
Besides the background layer with a 'B/W image' I created a layer to add some colour. When I use the eraser in that layer, a white haze appears. I've never experienced such a thing in over 15 years of Photoshop use.

Normal, coverage 100%. In the image below clearly to be seen the eraser stroke from left to right. The white haze best to be seen at the darker part.
I have an image that I want to use for a background but I want to add a colored haze over the image.

The renders are looking quite nice, but was told altering the haze could give it a more realistic appearance.

Â I know to use transparency and such but how to make the 'wisps' of smoke is beyond me.

The image is from a Canon T4i (650).
"Add people" feature has never worked in Elements 11. How do I fix this? It recognizes faces in individual photos, but not in groups of photos.

New user to PSE11. Is it recommended that ALL photos be in albums or is the idea that photos in albums are a subset of the photos in folders? With all the sort and search functionality, I don't understand the benefit of albums.I name my image folders using a standard naming convention with the date embedded so it makes them rather easy to manage.
View 1 Replies View RelatedThe instructions in Adobe Photo Elements 11 Classroom In a Book are the classic Windows "Drag and Drop" Method. However, when I try to do it, the cursor/icon I am dragging turns into a gray circle with a gray diagonal when it reaches the Media Browser pane in the Organizer and the folder/photo is not imported into the Organizer when I "drop." Do I need to change setting in Windows (Vista, SP2) or Photoshop Elements 11?
View 3 Replies View RelatedMy photos are OK in the Organizer, but the portrait photos are cut off at the top or bottom when used in a slide show. I have checked the "Crop to Fit" portrait selection but it makes no difference. I have Version 9 of Elements.

When I attempt to sync photos in iTunes (to synch with my iPhone), Photoshop Elements appears in the drop down and when I select it, it finds all the "albums" in the catalog. However, when I select an album to sync, iTunes indicates 0 photos are available in the album.

I'm running photoshop elements 11, iTunes 11.0.1.12, Windows 8 Pro.

if I try to sync "all photos and albums" it still reports that there are "0 photos" available to sync.

I've tried to make new albums, which iTunes "sees" the names, but there are "0 photos" available to sync.

I've also tried to sync with a folder (file system) which works just fine.

I can not paste photos from my photos file. If I start a blank file I can paste anything photos want from the web in as many layers as I want. If I try to paste a photo from my own photos file it becomes the back ground by itself. I don't know how to stop this. Using photoshop elements 11.

I have a folder of jpg versions of images that I have my Mac use as rotating backgrounds on my desktops. These jpg files were created from the original files without converting them from their default color spaces, so the jpgs are still in that color space. The original files are 16-bit ProPhoto RGB files at very high resolutions. The images were downsized, then saved as jpgs... that's it. What I noticed was some weird blockiness (like jpg artifacts) in the smooth regions of one of my backgrounds when it came up on my desktop. I opened the jpg in CC and sure enough there were the blocks. I thought it might be a color space thing, and I remembered that I had converted all my wallpaper files to sRGB versions using LR (converted from the ProPhotoRGB jpgs, not the original files). Opening one of those converted files in Photoshop CC showed no blockiness. That made no sense to me since the original ProPhotoRGB jpg that created the new sRGB jpg (via Lightroom) did seem to have those blocks. So I opened up Lightroom and looked at the original ProPhotoRGB jpg. This is where I'm baffled by the whole thing. How can the file show blockiness when viewed via the OS, and when viewed via CC, but not when viewed via Lightroom? Furthermore, how can lightroom take a file that has these blocks in it (as shown by CC and OS X) and display it without blocks, and create a block free version of it in another color space?
Â
Just for the hell of it, I went back to CC and the original high res ProPhoto PSD image, converted to sRGB before resizing and saving as a jpg, and sure enough the resulting image has no blockiness. I can buy that... something in the processing pipeline in CC works when you manually do the conversion, but is automatically taken care of in Lightroom, but why is the same file being displayed oddly in CC (with the blocks), when Lightroom doesn't show the problem (and can create a new version of the file without the problem that opens just fine in CC)?
Â
Here's a 200% screen shot of what photoshop shows when it opens the ProPhoto jpg file (the blocks are pretty evident in the blue of the sky): Here is the same exact file opened and displayed (at 200%) in Lightroom
