Many of us who’ve been using Adobe editing tools for years find that there’s less and less reason to open our images in Photoshop. Instead, Camera Raw and Lightroom offer almost everything we need to edit our images. But for precise retouching work, Photoshop has always been better – that’s until now.
The latest updates to Camera Raw and Lightroom include a Content-Aware healing feature that could be a game changer for your Raw editing workflow. Content-Aware Fill lets you target an object, then watch as Photoshop removes it. Now we can use the Content-Aware Remove tool in Camera Raw and Lightroom’s Develop Module to reach similarly impressive results. So, if there’s a distracting object or detail that you want to be rid of, you can simply paint over it.
Of course, it’s not going to be perfect every time. But with the other tools in the Healing panel, you can usually tidy up without importing into Photoshop. Once done, you can finish the image with one of our 10 free winter-themed profiles.
