There are many things that I do to improve the appearance o my photos. Sometimes I edit them to improve the color and others to remove blemishes. In this particular photo I loved the otherworldly feel of the Galaxy's Edge area of Disney's Hollywood Studios Park. I didn't really love seeing all the people in their brightly colored summer wear. So, my goal was to remove them as a distraction without having to clone them all out. I went to the Adjust Ribbon in the Historian image editor. I used the Lasso selection tool to select the bottom of the photo. I applied the rough painting filter and blur to the selected area. Then I went to the Touch Up Ribbon and applied the Decrease Color brush. Finally, I did some additional blurring using the Blur brush on the Touch Up Ribbon. When I get to adding this to a page, the bottom of the photo won't be pulling attention away from the cool atmosphere of Galaxy's Edge.
