Photo Enhancer

The operating system on my iPhone has a handy Clean Up feature which removes distracting objects from the background of photos. I've been playing with it and for the most part I like the way it works.

For example, I took a photo of a bouquet of flowers I received for Mother's Day:

The black electrical cord running behind the bouquet was a big distraction, so I got rid of it.

However, the feature isn't perfect. Removing the brass statue on the left hand side left a weird shadow.

  1. It's odd how the removal tool sometimes leaves strange shadows behind. It worked well on your flowers.

  3. Cool photo editing function! My camera phone doesn't have that. Who knows, perhaps my next one will?

  4. What a fun feature. I sometimes take pictures with my tablet and it has a blur and erase feature that I like.

  5. That cleanup feature is also on the iPad and it has been useful for the most part, but it can create some unwanted shadows as you noted. The flowers are lovely.

    1. I think the ability to use this app depends on how old your iPhone/iPad is and if you keep up to date with the updates.
