How can I correct the blue/orange halo effect, resembling chromatic aberration, in my photographs like the one discussed in this conversation?
Moved from a zombie thread to a fresh new one
Photoshop has a setting to adjust this under Lens correction
Duplicate the layer
To duplicate the background layer, right-click on it and choose “Duplicate Layer.”
Convert to Smart Object (optional):
Right-click on the layer that has been duplicated and select “Convert to Smart Object.” (for non destructive editing which is my preferred method).
Go to Filter>Lens Correction
Navigate to the Custom tab in the Lens Correction box.
The Fix Red/Cyan Fringe and Fix Blue/Yellow Fringe can be adjusted using the sliders found in the Chromatic Aberration section. Sliders should be moved to reduce the orange and blue fringes.
Finally, adjust the Hue/Saturation
Remove any remaining fringes, Image>Adjustments>Hue/Saturation
Choose the fringe colour, which is typically red or blue, and lessen the saturation
Thank you for the detailed instructions on correcting chromatic aberration in Photoshop. Your step-by-step guide on duplicating layers, using lens correction, and adjusting hue/saturation was incredibly helpful. I appreciate your thorough and clear explanation!
No prob - thanks
