| Remove Flash "Mark"
Hello, I took a picture today of my son on the school bus for the first time today.
Unfortunately there is a flash mark right on his face.
Is there anyway to remove it?
Here is the picture, this is not the original, but a resized version.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Steve |

just make sure you dont have ur subject in the middle... its just a reflection, on this shot, if you had another chance, you could've just taken a step right |

Do you have a larger image you can post? What it looks like is a reflection on the lens from the sun. You can see the sun in the upper window and was probably reflection onto the lens of the camera. There is nothing between the boy and the camera to reflect a flash straight back to the lens. Next time, when taking a picture look at the entire shot and not just the subject. I find this all the time in my shots because I do the same thing. I see the subject and not look at the entire image through the view finder. |

Thank you again,

said by sirchief : The sun was behind me when I took the shot. Thank you again, Steve Yes I know the sun was behind you but as you can see it is reflecting in the top part of the window. It will just about always give off some sort of lens flare when shooting into a bright light. As stated before looking at the whole picture before the shot you could have seen the sun reflection. Don't get me wrong here as I still don't see the entire image when I am shooting something and lost many nice images due to some sort of distraction or odd item in the finished frame. It is always easier to see the flaws after the fact, as I have done many many times. |
