As someone who has spent hours removing wires from my images I was blown away when Tony Sweet demonstrated how Luminar Neo can make wires disappear in a recent workshop in Charleston. Was not totally perfect but 95% of the wires were gone. Very little work to make the 5% go away. I immediately bought the plugin for $79. Wish this had been around years ago. Hate pesky wires.

Indeed! Wires can be the bane of a good landscape image and very difficult to remove.

Thanks for the user “review”. 😄

(Nobody said reviews have to be long and windy in fact they are much better when they are short and to the point ).

A before and after with the interim stage would be useful. I too, hate overhead utilities, and with a lot of old buildings around over here I can spend hours taking bits out.

I tried to remove the urban train cables in a photo of a building in Milan with Luminar Neo and it was impossible. The software works well if the cables are against or close to a solid colored background, such as a blue sky. But in that case you can also do it with photoshop. What I recognize is that with Luminar Neo if the cables are in good condition to erase it is very easy and effortless.

Yes, Luminar Neo. That was obvious. But where is the plugin or a YouTube or other link?

I've been fascinated with electricity since I was two. So I've spent lots of time photographing wires on purpose.

I do like the idea of choosing when to zap them out of an image, though. They get annoying at times. I'm thankful we own a vacant lot next to a 230 KV transmission line. The trees hide the wires and towers.

It wouldn't remove these power lines. I was sad. It seems to need poles and to be further into the picture to work. I had to remove these manually. It wasn't hard except where they crossed trees and birds

This is QED with Photoshop all by itself.
