Hi! Silly question about 'laser eyes'? - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Heycher · 12-05-2007, 07:58 AM

Hi All!

I have a stupid question... do you have trouble getting photos of your fur kids without the 'laser eyes'? I can't seem to get any of Violet without the reflection on her eyes. I'm not sure i'd get anything good w/o the flash, and don't know how on my camera to turn it off. Is that the only way to get pics without this? Or maybe is there is a different technique or something I can do on one of the photo sites to remove it?

Violet's doing great, 6 months now, 3.4 lbs. and goes for her spay on Monday which I am, of course, totally nervous about.

Thanks guys!

Here's a picture of my laser eyed girl

What a little cutie.

Yes, I have that problem too. The only way I have found to avoid it is to take pics outside....then the girls are too busy running and being silly...

Hard to get an outside xmas pic unless its snowing outside

Rosi is the one that allways has demon eyes

Guess if not getting good pics inside, have to Photoshop it

I always photoshop them out too.

Yep I have a little green eyed demon as well, still haven't figured out how to take a picture and not get the glowing eyes, so I just photoshop it out.

She's a cutie! I have wondered about this also. Koda has orange/red eyes

But that helps take the attention off his big (shhh don't tell Koda i said this) BIG ears

I think I may need to invest in photoshop. I looked before and it's a bit pricey isn't it? Maybe I'm not even thinking the same thing

Heres a couple of red/orange eyes for ya!

You don't really need a big expensive program like photoshop to fix the red eye ( I just use it because I have it ) windows comes with a paint program ,look for it in the accessories area. Just move your picture into the paint program , zoom in on the glowing eye ( do one eye at a time) , click on a dark brown from the color pallet , then click on a brush and slowly paint out the glowing color with the new color, zoom out to see how it looks if its still not quite right zoom in and pick a different color and repaint. With a little practice your little demons will look like saints in no time! HA HA !

Kodak Easyshare software also has a red-eye remover tool. It works great on red eyes, but the "glowing" eyes are hard to remove...
