No task is too difficult. Removing objects from photos as if by magic.
Our updated image removal algorithm offers unmatched precision in object erasing. It creates a smarter sample texture that’s used for pixel replacement. It also perfectly blends the edges of the erased area into the scene, creating a natural-looking image with no signs of erasing. And it does all of that in a click.

Automatically relight backlit photos or darkened images in a click with the Relight feature. Luminar Neo calculates a precise 3D depth map to spread light spatially across the 2D image.

If the sky in your photo isn’t compelling due to bad weather or poor exposure, you can easily replace it with Sky AI. It scans an image to identify sky and water, then seamlessly changes the sky with the selected replacement sky, adds realistic water reflections, and intelligently relights the scene.

Best photo editting software ever
I love this software, it is SO easy to use and intuitive; takes my pictures to a new level.
The customer service is really great as well, if you need any help at all with it (I've had a couple of download issues with updates, I'm sure it's my terrible internet connection, but they sent me a link within 24 hours of my asking and it worked great)

I had entered a burn-out phase with…
I had entered a burn-out phase with photography. I love landscape photography but with aging and work I am limited on energy and time. However now being able to use any of my hundreds of sky shots I have taken over the last 30 years and instantly plug them into any of my landscape shots....well it is difficult to describe how nice and fulfilling it has been. I can't say enough about the program. Also the adjustments I can make with all the other features is revolutionary. Thank you.

Skylum software is simply next level
Skylum software is simply next level. It allows me to deliver previously unimaginable results in minutes. Sometimes I just do not have the time to faff around with a sophisticated package like PS. In fairness, Skylums AI technology often wipes the floor with these packages in both time and results. Five Stars
Erase is an easy-to-use tool in Luminar Neo that helps you remove objects from pictures in no time.
How can I remove unwanted objects from a photo?
The Erase tool works non-destructively and matches the original pixels’ texture, lighting, and shading without using a layer. As soon as the Erase tool is selected, the cursor becomes a brush. When brushing over areas to erase, a red overlay appears, showing the selection.
Select and Deselect. By default, Select is chosen. When brushing over an image with Select chosen, you select areas to erase (indicated with a red overlay). By clicking the Deselect button, you can deselect areas to erase (removing the red overlay).
The Size slider increases or decreases the brush size. You can also use the left and right bracket keys [ ] to decrease and increase the brush size. It’s a good idea to keep the brush slightly larger than the size of the object or blemish you’re erasing.
Click the Erase button to erase selected areas of your image (indicated with the red overlay).
Clear Selection clears your current selections so you can start over.
Click Restore to restore the current selection.
