How to Remove Shadows from a Photoshop in Photoshop

Sometimes you get the perfect photo, but there are unwanted shadows on it.

This picture was sent to me by one of our members:  Richard Pilcher. He asked… “I have a NEF file of elephants drinking – refer to attached jpeg. Is there any way to reduce the impact of harsh shadows on the baby elephants? Hopefully you can address this common issue at some stage in the future.”

Fortunately, yes, we can fix this in Photoshop.  Thanks for the question and sending the lovely image, Richard.

Here is my fixed image. I worked from the jpg, so if you are working from an original raw file, you should get even better results.

Ok, let me show you what I did.

Please check out the video above for the tutorial, the written steps are coming really soon! As in this week, maybe tonight,.
