Hi Everyone!

 

Try out Generative Remove, powered by Adobe Firefly's generative AI! With just a brush mask, you can easily remove distractions or unwanted objects from your photos. Adobe Firefly will automatically remove the object and seamlessly blend the fill with the rest of the image.

 

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Give it a try and share your Before & After images—or just the After—and show us the magic you've created in the comments below.

 

Try it in Lightroom Classic

Generative Remove

 

Step 1

In the Develop module select the Remove tool by pressing Q or clicking the eraser icon beneath the histogram making sure the Mode is set to Remove. 

Step 2

Select "Use generative AI" and use the slider to adjust your brush size.

 

 

Step 3

Use the brush to paint over the object you want to remove making the selection slightly larger than the object.

 

 

 

Step 4

Use the Add or Subtract buttons to complete your selections (don't forget the shadows) then click Remove.

 

Step 5

Using Adobe Firefly, Lightoom Classic removes the objects creating three different versions to choose from. You can cycle through the versions in the Selected panel, change the Opacity, Generate three new variations, or delete them and try again.

 

Step 6

You can also use Detect object to easily select an object by simply making a squiggle over it.

 

Step 7

 Lightroom automatically detects the object for easy removal.

It couldn't understand the octagon design and it initially left some noise from deleting the advertisements

Tried simply removing the wires first then thought we could tidy up the flaky paintwork!

And after! Group photo rescued! Great success! 

(Kinda weird though how it completely got rid of the left black stripe on the ground... but matched it exactly to the edge of the red frame? hmm...)

Removed some annoying signs, and power. Removing the wiring running along the wall worked really well!

Would probably need some iterations to get a really nice boat that was covered but nonetheless impressive

Amazing feature!
I captured this water lily in July ... the flower was beautiful but the leaves weren't neat.
