How do you get rid of a halo??

Post by pdxrjt »

I think this is a common problem and I believe I've read about it somewhere, but can't find much help now. I did a selection which I masked, on Stonehenge. Then I tweaked the sky quite a bit. However, the actual Henge (when it is unmasked) seems to have a small light "halo" around it. (Not sure hot to attach a pic) I've tried several things, but none do a great job. Tried feathering the selection a few pixels, tried burning the halo, tried "smudging" the halo into the sky, but it still looks a bit unnatural. There may not be a good solution and the picture looks OK, but I think it would look much better without the halo.

Make sure your selection is set to 0 on both Feather and Smoothing and you should get a clean line.

Otherwise you may try Cloning some of the sky back towards the subject.

Will check into feather and smoothing, will look into the cloning too. Thanks
