I cant figure out why its doing this. Works just fine on some photos, ridiculously green on others. Ive tried reinstalling LRC, Ive tried disabling the GPU processing. System info included at the end.

Dehaze is a complex algorithm, better used in a subtle way. Using a value of 70 can indeed give unexpected results.

Just weird that its happening to only some of the images and not all the images. Had a few that were getting blue tint when the one before and after in a burst looked very similar. Seems like theres something that throws it off.

Probably the combination of colors, and perhaps the fact that there is no haze to remove in the first place.

There have been a few other reports about Dehaze producing noticeably different colors on very similar photos:

It appears that the Dehaze algorithm is sometimes mathematically "unstable" -- small changes in the input can result in unpredictably large changes in the output:

Some of the other "image adaptive" sliders appear unstable as well.
