Even better, Lightroom Classic and Lightroom CC on the desktop include a great Visualize Spots feature to help you find them. Lightroom Classic CC, Lightroom CC for desktop, and Lightroom CC on mobile devices each include a healing tool that samples nearby pixels to fix a circular area-perfect for removing spots. Of course, you could throw away your camera gear and pursue a less frustrating hobby, but we know that’s not going to happen. When they become apparent, you have a few options. Little blotches in an otherwise perfect gradation of color-especially in areas without much texture, such as a clear sky.Ĭlick the images below for larger versions.

But to take photos, I have to get out into the world, and the world is full of dust.

Like any well-meaning photographer, I try to keep my lenses clean. And if the job is too difficult, Photoshop is waiting off to the side, ready to bring more sophisticated healing tools to the task. Plus, the displays on the backs of most cameras obscure such details unless you’re specifically looking for them.įortunately, dust and other artifacts are easy to fix in Lightroom. You may not notice dust on your lens or sensor while you’re shooting photos because you’re focused on capturing the scene in front of you. Dust is everywhere, but we usually don’t see it.
