    Hi.
    In inclement weather or standing close to running water, one is likely to get water droplets and splashes on lenses and filters.
    Anyone know of a good post-processing method for removal of these?
    I've tried a few things, but would be interested in any techniques people have tried, other than not getting them wet in the first place!
    Cheers,
    Bill

    Healing brush in PS may do the trick.

    A mixture of clone, healing brush and healing patch tool depending on the splash. I dont know any instant fool proof fix.

    But your right, dont get it wet in 1st place, nightmare with my 12-24 at time :-(

    Thanks guys.
    Pretty much what I've been using already.
    I've also had a bit of success with masked levels or curves layers. Generally, the droplets I've, so far, encountered tend to reduce the local brightness/contrast in the area of the splash. It's all been trial and error so far. Seems like "horses for courses."
    It's not always easy to keep dry standing beside a waterfall, though!
