Excellent tip. Coincidentally just three days ago I had this exact situation on a picture and I couldn’t figure out how to remove the aberration. This tip worked great.

Thank you Liz, for another great tutorial.
I’m so happy to see you here.
Is this what happens to photos of bright red roses? They have a crazy glowing edge sometimes.
I will definately check this out.

Hi Rosi!
You know, I hadn’t thought of that (wrt the roses), but it could be — especially, because we tend to shoot flowers zoomed in and wide open (for the shallow depth of field).
Please let us know how it goes.

This is a great tip. Is there no “cheat sheet”?

Not for this one, Sandra. We’re trying to do more of them with the videos, but we can’t hit them all.

I like the “cheat” sheets, too. But, I’ve discovered that if I watch a video and take notes (the second time through), I learn so much more. To stop-and-start the video, write down the instructions, and work a photo simultaneously, I’m able to absorb 2x or 3x more info. Plus, I can choose the exact wording which corresponds to the idiot-syncracies of my mind.
