Do any of these happen to you?
- You have to crop a photo, perhaps because it isn’t straight or you applied lens corrections, but the crop cuts out something you really need?
- Something in your photo is right on the edge of the photo, and needs to be moved up a bit?
- You need to fix two things that are really close to each other, and the spot removal tool won’t let you?
If so, you will want to watch my 5 minute video here showing some cool tips for using the Lightroom spot removal tool. They won’t always work, but when they do they are quite handy. These tips apply to all version of Lightroom, and to Camera Raw as well.
I find that the more I challenge the spot removal tool, the more I discover that it can do for me. Yes, it still has its limits, but it is much more powerful than it initially appears!

That is so cool. There are so many times I could have (and will) use this. I love your tutorials!!
Thank you, Lorita!
You’ve moved my understanding of lightroom on a little more! Very useful, as I have been flummoxed several times with one spot removal circle stopping me working on the adjoining area.
NB. Have you seen possibilities for Galleries from The Turning Gate …?
Thanks for the note, Chris, good to hear! I haven’t had time to revisit The Turning Gate in quite a while — but I was impressed when I did check them out.
Great tip; I look forward to learning more as I follow along.
