Len Flare Adjustment in LR 5.7.1
Apr 26, 2021 11:47:14 #
In the past, if I see a little lens flare when using an older PowerShot S110, I use the LR local adjustment and could usually deal with it. Yesterday, I went to do the same, selected the area, but all the slides adjusted the entire image rather than just the area that I had selected. I tried a number of things, none of which seemed to help. I also, out of desperation, tried the clone tool but couldn’t find a suitable source area. Back to the local adjustment, all I want to do is select the area and adjust within it. Any thoughts how what I might have missed or changed that made what I’ve in the past not happening?

There many ways to remove flare this is one on YouTube that uses frequency separation:

This is another approach I wrote up in my blog:

Check to see if you have the "inverse" box selected.
Always happens

Two things:
Post an image so we can see what you are referring to.
You want to select an area and perform local adjustments? Why not use the Brush tool in the Develop module?

I posted the image. I used the LR Brush tool and that's where I'm experiencing the problem.
I don't have Photoshop.

Your highlights are completely blown out. If you can reshoot this magnificent animal, consider doing a brackedted shot +- 2 stops for 2 images and merge in Lightroom. Or take two shots, one exposed for the horse, the other for the sky, then merge. His left rear hoof is blurred, so use a higher shutter speed to freeze motion. Oh, and clone out the barb wire strand.
For the lens flare, the spot removal tool would work IF you carefully grab a part of his coat that is identical to shoulder (color and texture)

I agree there are blown out areas. They are largely recoverable, however. When I’m on bike ride, I have to take what I can get and then try to make the best of it. I’m revisited later tonight and will post the end result. Thanks!

Here's my final effort? Two responders mentioned an "inverse box." I couldn't find so if either of you revisit, could you point it out? My thick brain looked and looked without success. Thanks!
