  • Correct distortion

    Use the interactive Perspective Correction tool to adjust the perspective of buildings, landmarks, or objects in photos. You can also easily remove pincushion and barrel distortions introduced by your camera lens.

Retouch

  • Remove unwanted areas and imperfections

    Use the Smart Carver to paint over an area and eliminate unwanted photo elements. Try the Healing Clone tool to remove imperfections, or the Red-Eye Removal tool to eliminate red pixels from eyes.

  • Sharpen, blend and blur

    Reveal image details with sharpening filters, effects and brushstrokes. Remove artifacts with the help of artificial intelligence, and soften transitions between colors or hard edges with blend, smear and smudge tools.

Adjust

  • Correct color and tone

    Open the Adjustments to correct color balance and tone issues. Adjust temperature, tint, saturation, brightness, and contrast manually or automatically. You can also use a histogram to adjust tone interactively, or make changes to color channels directly.

  • Use adjustment filters for greater control

    Filters offer greater control over the image correction process and allow adjustments to color and tone. Apply a filter to an entire image, an object layer, or an editable area of an image.

Composite

  • Work with Objects

    Increase your image editing capabilities by using Objects, which are independent image elements layered on top of one another. Edit Objects without affecting other objects or the background of an image.

  • Use Clip masks

    Adjust the properties of a group of objects without modifying the objects within the group by creating a clip mask. For example, you can adjust the transparency levels for the whole group without altering the pixels of the individual objects.

  • Isolate image areas

    Edit and adjust specific areas of your image without affecting the rest of your photo. Try the Smart Selection tool to quickly and accurately select around parts of your image you want to modify.

  • Cut out images
