Red Eye

by

When taking photos of people and animals one of the biggest problems that occur is red eye. This is actually caused by the built in camera flash. Some tricks to follow to reduce the appearance of redeye is to have you subject not look directly at the camera, turn off your camera flash, use a hot flash. A lot of newer cameras also have redeye reduction built into the camera.
If redeye still occurs, it can easily be removed using your photo editing program.

Photoshop CS3 has a quick tool to detect and remove red eye a selection of the healing options on the toolbars.

Paint Shop Pro 7 has a similar Under Enhance Photo option. When opening the tool you will need to select the area in the main screen that needs to be removed. Adjust the box and align it over the pupil of the eye and review what it will look like in the preview window. When it looks good to you click ok and you are finished.

If you do not use these programs and use the photo kiosk at your favorite store, the kiosk will have a program to help remove the redeye. Ask for assistance if you need help.
