Trouble with haze in photos

When I returned from vacation recently I noticed that in almost all of my Mediterrean photos there is a haze. Objects up close are fine, but as the distances increase so does the have.See example below.  I've tried Curves, Levels, Auto Tone, Auto Contrast, and Auto Color with little luck. I'd appreciate any help.

Try duplicating the layer and setting the copy layer to Multiply blend mode.
If necessary mask the foreground (where the effect isn't needed) with a layer mask.
NB: Work on a copy – don't touch your holiday originals!

  • I'm having trouble with my iCloud photos. I thought i could be a little sneaky and take a photo of my photos that were more than 30 days old, so they would be uploaded along with my new photos. that part worked, but i can't upload them to Snapfish?!

    i'm having trouble with my iCloud photos. I thought i could be a little sneaky and take a photo of my photos that were more than 30 days old, so they would be uploaded along with my new photos. that part worked, but i can't select them to upload them to Snapfish?! Any thoughts? I'm bummed. I've got a few hundred photos on my iPhone that I'd like to move seemlessly - or somehow at all.

    hopefully something in here is helpful?

  • Hi having trouble with camera roll photos - can not see them in i tunes

    Hi having trouble with camera roll photos - can not see them in i tunes. Is adobe photoshop the only program I can use?

    You don't see them in iTunes. In theory your computer should see the device as a camera and you should be able to transfer the photos in the same way as if you'd connected a 'proper' camera to your computer (this only applies to photos taken with the device or saved from emails/websites etc, it doesn't apply to photos that were synced from your computer). There is some help/guidance in this article for transferring photos to your computer : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083

  • Trouble with sync once photos are all organized into folders on iphoto. Help!

    I have imported and organized all of my pictures of off my iphone into iphoto. I then went to sync like I always do, only requesting that 2 folders (approx 900 photos) be put back on my phone. When the sync finished, it said that itunes couldnt sync 250 of the photos I asked it to. That's 1 issue. It said that itunes would tell my why it couldn't, then it didn't!
    Problem #2 is this...my 2 folders of 900 photos shows up on my phone in the folders, but then all 900 photos are also in photo library. How do I keep these from showing up twice? It's taking up all of my memory with every photo being saved to my phone twice.
    I've tried to find tutorials & help with Iphone & haven't had much luck. I've imported, foldered, synced, and gone about my business plenty of times before. Now i'm running out of memory & my phone is telling me it can't completely sync.

    Is there an Albums section in the left hand pane?  If so move the cursor to the right of the Album name till Show appears and click on it?
    If there is no left hand pane where the Event and Photos icons, albums, slideshows, etc. usually sit move the cursor over the  left edge of the window until it turns into a a cross like this:
    then click and drag to the right to open the pane.
    If you can't get that to work Try the following:
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
    User/Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder (Snow Leopard and Earlier).
    or with Lion and Mt. Lion from the User/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto/
    Data/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder
    3 - launch iPhoto, reset its various preferences and try again. The left hand pane will be visible.
    NOTE 1: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto.  You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
    NOTE 2:  In Lion and Mountain Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.

  • Trouble with workflow: importing photos from Flickr

    I seem to be having difficulty with my first attempt. I've created a workflow (as per automator.us tutorial) to import linked photos from the current web page (in this case a Flickr Groups page of which I am the Administrator) and put them in iPhoto. The workflow seems to run (I get little green checkmark-circles in the lower left of each step, and the folder I have specified is created in iPhoto), however the photos do not show up and the count is 0. What am I missing?
    Also (related?), sometimes when I try to switch to Automator from the web page or from iPhoto, only the last used application will surface; Automator stays hidden and I usually have to finegle my way to grab part of the window.
    Any ideas? Thanks
    Drelika

    Hi
    Thanks for your response. I went to Flickr and examined the links. I don't know much about web pages but I understand what you mean. So, does this mean that I can't automate the downloading of these photos or is there some way I can modify the workflow to work? I'm really hoping I don't have to download 236 photos one at a time!

  • Trouble with Titles over Photos

    I am having issues placing titles over the photos in my movie. I can create the titles and preview the title over the photo. When I click and drag the title icon to the timeline to place over the photo the title disappears. I have made sure that the duration of the title is not longer than the photo's duration.
    Thank you

    Welcome to the discussions!
    Are you sure that you are dragging the "T" (beside the type of title you want) over the beginning of the clip or at least to a point where you have split the clip?
    Also, do you see a little green circle with the + sign in it where you are attempting to drop it? If not, you may be trying to drop it after a transition and you need to place the title there first then add the transition.

  • Having trouble with transitions between photos for project...

    I tried doing what it said under Troubleshooting but it won't work. Is there a way to have a transition automatically between photos instead of manually putting them there? (kind of like iDVD). I did it individually but then it wouldn't work or the transition time between is too short.

    If you don't have a mouse with a right click, just use the drop down menu. File/Project Properties.
    If you have a laptop, I am sure there is a key sequence that simulates a right click. I don't have a laptop, so I don't know what it is. If you have an apple mighty mouse, you can set up right-clicking in the system preferences / keyboard and mouse menu.
    Open project space is the gray space behind the clips. It may be a different color if you have added music.

  • Trouble with iphoto categorizing photos correctly.

    I just upgraded and now my recent photos are not showing up in events or in photos only in last import and last 12 months. How do I get them to automatically go to events?
    I have an imac and I just upgraded iphoto, though this seemed to be an issue for the last few uploads from my computer before the upgrade.

    Select a pic in Last Import and Right-Click on it. Choose 'Show Event' from the menu. This will bring you to the Event containing the photo.
    If the photo is in Last Import, then the photo is in the Library somewhere,  just not where you expect it to be. Usual causes: the date on your camera is wrong, and so the date on the photo is wrong, or the sorting of the Events has changed (View Menu -> Sort Events)

  • Trouble with Adobe Bridge CS5.5 for Mac Lion Photo downloader

    Hi, I am having trouble with  CS5.5 Bridge's photdownloader when I am trying to choose a folder location.
    Im using Lion / Mac
    When I try to choose say an external drive or another folder location it will freeze up and stay on "Choose" the button flashes on and off but when i try to click it it will not respond or select the desired file location
    The photodownloader does not respond to any other commands..i have to force quit it..yes i have re-booted..re-started and problem remains..
    The only way i can download photos is by choosing the first file option of the pictures file on my harddrive which is not want I wish to do..i have noticed that this started happening after the Raw update..was wondering if this is affecting Photodownloader..
    any suggestions would be greatly appreciated..thank you

    Thank you, SG, for clarifying which OS's this will work with.
    I agree with Jennie - the beauty of "get photos from camera" is that it takes 2 steps out of the workaround you mention above. Personally, I'm okay living with 6.4.1, as I have an older camera. I won't be happy if one of the push updates re-updates me to 6.5 though. I wouldn't want to redo the reinstallation of the new version. This method will not work for any of my clients or students though - they normally can't comfortably follow the technicality of downgrading, and some have newer cameras and would need the 6.5 version. (I don't believe in betas for my clients, and neither do they, for the most part)
    I guess I should thank Adobe - some of my clients have needed tech support to perform the downgrade (SO many people aren't comfortable technically), and some of my clients needed to be retaught the workaround SG mentions. Adobe's flub has actually made me a little money - which I'd rather not have to make this way.
    SG's workaround does work and makes sense - but for my clients with hundreds of images at a time, who have to rename items, add copyright info, & etc., this more than doubles their work-time for the start of their workflow. I hope Adobe gets that GM version out soon.
    BTW - this issue supports an argument I've hadfor years regarding "PUSH" updates. I always tell my clients and students not to do them until they research the update. Because of what I do, I do have to install them personally, but I'm grateful I'm comfortable fixing things myself.

    I'm having trouble with the develop module in LR5.4. Any adjustments are taking effect, but only viewable in the filmstrip, not on the main photo. The navigator will go grey, as does the main area too. This applies to all edits done in develop module. I have posted several times on the forum with no responses to address this, and have seen others with the same issue. I have even gone as far as to do a complete re-install of LR5, with no success. I'm at a loss, and I depend on it for so much editing. Please help.

  • I have a white haze over photos when taking a picture with my flash

    I have a white haze over photos when taking a picture with my flash.  What can I do to fix it?

    After the ios7 update, my wife's phone began having these same issues and we assumed it was a flaw with the update.
    But  after some trial and error, we concluded it was the illumination of the  white plastic backing of the iPhone 4.  We tried a different protective  case, we blackened the apeture of the black case with a black sharpie,  none of those things worked.
    It  was noted that the white and blurry photos only occurred with a case  installed.  Without a case, the photos were perfect.  It is a *** issue.
    Since  we were using a case and appearance was not that big of an issue, I  decided to apply a strip of black electrical tape with holes punched out  for the camera and flash mechanisms and reapplied the protective case.   This tacky fix solved 95% of the white blurry look to the flash photos.
    So  a work-around is to apply a non-transparent piece of tape, or sticker  with appropiate sized holes for the camera lens and flash LED on the  back of the white plastic phone case.  It's tacky, it's a poor design  from apple, but it works.

  • E-Mailing Photos from iPhoto - Having trouble with resolution

    I am having trouble with emailing pictures from i-photo. When I email pictures as attachments they end up being low resolution versions and the receiver can not print them. I can not figure out what sort of setting I must have set. Please help.

    MMVP
    Welcome to the Apple user assistance forums
    1 - how are you selecting and attaching the photos?
    2 - what is the resolution of the photos in iPhoto?
    3 - if you are using the iPhoto e-mail capability (recommended) you select a photo(s) and click mail - there you can choose actual, large, medium or small
    4 - this creates an e-mail message in the e-mail client of your choice (iPhoto preferences) - if you are using Apple mail in the lower right hand corner under the e-mail there is a menu where you can set Actual, large, medium or small
    Be sure that both selections are set the way you want them - if either is se tto small you will send a small (low resolutin) photo

  • Has anyone had trouble with photo albums after downloading a newer version of iPhoto?

    Has anyone had trouble with photo albums and viewing photos after downloading a newer version of iPhoto?

    I downloaded mountain lion and then iPhoto '11 in order to tap into iCloud capabilities with all of my devices. (My Mac was outdated in regards to operating platform to do this). After installing iPhoto 11, I had to repair and rebuild my library of photos.  However, after doing this, all of my albums were jumbled and, while I can see the image thumbnail, when I click on the thumbnail, and error that looks like a black triangle and gray exclamation pops up as opposed to the larger hi def image I want to view.
