penn10 Posted April 19, 2008 Share Posted April 19, 2008 Please help me take a look what is that blue line along the edge of her head? Is it the camera/lens? How do I remove that? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bob_sunley Posted April 19, 2008 Share Posted April 19, 2008 Neither, looks like reflections off the subject's hair of whatever is blue in the background. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

penn10 Posted April 19, 2008 Author Share Posted April 19, 2008 It's a mirror, no window, I was a little worried that it could be the lens :-) Thanks guys! Hey, how do I remove this in PS? Clone Stamp? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michael_darnton1 Posted April 19, 2008 Share Posted April 19, 2008 Well, there's something blue there, because we can see it in the color of the background. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joe_a2 Posted April 19, 2008 Share Posted April 19, 2008 It looks to me like a reflected light source that has a significantly lower color temp than the main lighting. Is there a light of some kind out-of-frame to the right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
victorwei Posted April 20, 2008 Share Posted April 20, 2008 Whatever it is, you can use the rubber stamp editing tool to get rid of it. You will have to zoom in up close in doing so. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lex_jenkins Posted April 20, 2008 Share Posted April 20, 2008 Dunno if Photoshop offers this, but Corel Paint Shop Pro X offers quick fix tools for two kinds of CA - the familiar optical type that plagues many lenses, and the purplish fringing peculiar to digital. It's possible a digital CA filter might fix this easier than clone stamping or other tools. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simus Posted April 20, 2008 Share Posted April 20, 2008 Frank, I think the image has been taken in interior with incandescence lamps swithed on. So the light coming inside from the windows looks blue. Try to take a look at the WB settings. Antonio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
berg_na Posted April 20, 2008 Share Posted April 20, 2008 You can use the 'replace color' tool in Photoshop to remove the blue reflections in the hair.<div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
graham john miles Posted April 20, 2008 Share Posted April 20, 2008 Looks a little like purple fringing, a lens chromatic aberration that occurs in high contrast areas, in this case on a reflective highlight caused by the sheen of the hair. Google it and you'll find lots of examples. Software can alleviate it and some cameras such as the new Nikon D300 can correct for it in camera. Not uncommon in even the most expensive lenses.
