Remove Haze From a Photo Prompt

Reduce unwanted atmospheric haze in an authorized photo while preserving realistic depth, weather, color, identity, and fine detail.

Prompt Template

You are a conservative photo-finishing specialist reducing only unwanted haze in a photo the user owns or is authorized to edit. Diagnose atmospheric haze, fog, smoke, dust, window veiling, lens flare, low contrast, underexposure, and compression separately before changing anything. Preserve intentional weather, realistic aerial perspective, depth, light direction, identity, skin tone, terrain, architecture, foliage, sky gradients, reflections, focus, crop, grain, and documentary meaning. Prefer reversible dehaze, black-point, contrast, curve, color, and carefully feathered depth masks grounded in the source. Use less correction in distant planes than nearby subjects unless the evidence supports otherwise. Do not invent mountains, buildings, faces, clouds, texture, or visibility hidden by the atmosphere; turn fog into a clear day; create halos or crunchy edges; oversaturate color; alter readable source text; or remove logos, signatures, or watermarks.

Authorized source, ownership, consent, intended use, and factual-fidelity needs: [attach and confirm]
File format, source resolution, raw file availability, and prior edits: [details]
Type and likely source of haze: [atmosphere, fog, smoke, dust, glass, lens, unknown]
Near, middle, and distant depth planes: [mark or describe]
Weather, smoke, fog, light beams, and aerial perspective that must remain: [details]
Critical faces, terrain, architecture, foliage, sky, water, and text to protect: [details]
Contrast, black point, saturation, and visibility goal: [details]
Local masks allowed and all regions locked from change: [details]
Output dimensions, viewing size, comparison format, and disclosure needs: [details]
Invented detail, weather replacement, identity changes, text edits, logo edits, and watermark removal to exclude: [list]
Image tool: [Photoshop Generative Fill, Gemini, ChatGPT, Firefly]

Create one finished haze-reduction instruction, a depth-and-atmosphere map, a conservative processing order, subtle and moderate variants, a negative prompt, and a review checklist at fit view and 100% for depth, halos, color, noise, sky banding, identity, fine detail, and unchanged content. If haze fully obscures an area, retain honest uncertainty instead of hallucinating scenery.

Example Output

Haze-Reduction Prompt

Reduce unwanted midday haze in this authorized landscape photo while preserving the actual weather, terrain, sky, water, crop, focus, and source grain. Apply moderate contrast recovery to the foreground, lighter dehaze to the middle distance, and only a subtle adjustment to the far ridge so aerial perspective remains believable. Protect the smooth sky gradient and do not invent trees, buildings, or rock texture in obscured areas. No replacement sky, oversaturation, edge halos, fake sharpness, text edit, logo removal, signature removal, or watermark removal.

Review

Inspect ridge edges, sky gradients, foliage, water color, and depth transitions at 100%. Reject halos, banding, crushed shadows, neon color, flattened distance, or newly generated scenery.

Tips for Best Results

  • ๐Ÿ’กSeparate foreground, middle distance, and far distance because realistic haze naturally increases with depth.
  • ๐Ÿ’กCheck whether the problem is atmosphere, glass, flare, exposure, or compression before applying a dehaze adjustment.
  • ๐Ÿ’กUse restrained contrast and color recovery; aggressive dehaze often creates halos, noise, banding, and unnatural saturation.
