Removing Hot Pixels In Photoshop
Hot pixels are those red, blue, and green spots in our photos. They appear in long exposure photos when the sensor has been active for a long time.

I’ll show you how in this video.

Sometimes you commit to a landscape composition, but the moving elements never come together perfectly in a single frame. The best wave might be in one photo, while another has better texture or movement elsewhere in the scene.
In this video, I’ll show you how I selected three seascape photos and blended their strongest elements using simple layers and masks in Photoshop. The masking is straightforward, and the same idea works in any editing software that supports layers.
