Adobe Photoshop is one of the most popular and most relied-on photo editing tools. From photo editing and image composition to layers and cloud storage, Photoshop has been the standard name in the industry for all the services related to photo editing. All over the years, Adobe Photoshop has not failed to bring fresh and innovative updates that make things a lot easier for users. Recently, Photoshop introduced its latest AI feature that erases window glares from pictures.
Out of the AI features introduced in all photo editing tools, removing unnecessary objects is the most beneficial as it helps develop clutter-free images without a time-consuming process. Just a click of a finger and your favorite image is ready for the world. So, within no time this latest feature of Adobe Photoshop will become a favorite among editors and others equally. However, what are the specifications offered with this feature? Let’s dive into the details of the latest AI feature of Photoshop. This article will lead you through it.
What are glass glares and how are they formed?
Have you ever clicked a picture only to realize that glass glares spoil it? How would you tackle such a situation? Glass glares and reflections can be real headaches for photographers. They spoil the overall look of the photograph. These distractions always run the picture making it unusable for uploading or printing. But, what exactly are glass glares, and how are they caused?
Glass glares are unnecessary reflections of light found on glasses or other reflecting objects. They make photographs look washed out or need more contrast. The detailing of the images will be reduced by these glares as there may be bright spots or reflections of light that shift the focus of the image. Several reasons cause these disturbing glares in a photograph. One of the major factors contributing to this distraction is the direct and indirect sun glare. While the direct sunlight hits the camera lens and reflects in the image causing polygonal shapes and washed-out lens flares, indirect sunlight reflects on objects like water or glass causing veiling glare or foggy effect that reduces image contrast.
Another factor that leads to glass glares is the built-in camera and lens quality. If the camera lens has lower-quality materials, it will lead to glares. These low-quality materials easily attract glare and allow internal reflections. Narrow aperture or low ISO settings can also lead to more chances of glares.
Adobe’s latest AI feature for glass glares
As mentioned, Adobe has come up with the latest update that helps get rid of glass glares with a simple click. Adobe has already introduced various Artificial Intelligence (AI) features that made photo editing a lot easier and effortless. However, this latest feature will be a groundbreaking innovation in photo editing as glares have always been a constant headache for photographers as well as editors.
According to a recent update, the Camera Raw tool of Adobe Photoshop will include a new AI feature exclusively for glass glares. This AI-powered feature will remove reflections and glares from your photos with a simple click. This feature will identify the image and the reflection in it as two different images. So, if you take a picture through a glass window or some other reflecting surface, this tool will help you erase the reflecting part easily making the image subject clear. As the technology used in this feature identifies the subject and the reflection as two different images, this AI feature can comprehend what the image will look like without glare and extract a clear version of it from the original image.
As this new feature was very effective, Adobe is thinking of introducing more removal tools. In a recent blog, Adobe noted that they are planning to expand their AI features. They noted that more removal tools will be introduced shortly which will enable removing dust, scratches, rain, snow, or other things present on windows or reflecting surfaces.
How can you use this feature?
Adobe has made it clear that their technology will work only on raw images. So, to enable this new AI feature you have to open the Camera Raw plug-in and activate the New AI settings feature from the Technology Previews section. After enabling the settings and the Feature Panel, restart the application.
Later, you have to upload an image and select the Distraction Removal section from the Remove panel. The next step is to click the box labeled Reflections. After a few seconds, the app will provide a preview of the image without reflections. The finished image will come with a slider option that is set to 100. You can adjust the reflection by adjusting this slider. Once the image is adjusted according to their convenience, you can save it to your device.
