Removing haze


You can remove haze from an image. It’s great for landscape photography when haze causes low contrast and low saturation. You can also improve photos taken in rainy and foggy weather.

To remove haze from an image

Back to Top
Edit tab 
1 Choose Adjust Haze Removal.
The Haze Removal dialog box appears.
2 Type or set a value in the following controls:
Strength — sets the overall strength of haze reduction. Lower values lessen the effect; higher values intensify the adjustment.
Block Size — sets the extent of the area adjacent to a pixel used to caluculate how the adjustment is performed. Higher values draw data from more neighboring pixels, ideal for correcting image-wide haze; lower values draw data from smaller image areas, which retains finer details and can produce better contrast.
Guider — balances haze reduction and local contrast in an image, with higher values removing more haze but potentially impacting local contrast, and lower values preserving finer details at the expense of lesser haze removal.
Fill Light — lightens the darkest areas of the photo at higher values and preserves the original setting at a value of 0.
3 Click OK.
