In this video, I will show you how to remove power lines from photos by stroking a path with the Spot Healing Brush Tool.

I created this tutorial because I realized I had mistakenly described this technique in one of my Photoshop tips of the day (now fixed).

I received many emails from confused people, so I decided to create a video and clear up any confusion people may have.

  1. This was perfect for an editing scenario I see quite often that I can’t fix well in Lightroom. Thanks for this!

  2. When I go to the flyout menu, the stroke path option is grayed out. What do I need to click to make it an option? Thanks.

    1. Make sure you have the path selected and that you are on a pixel layer.

  3. You say to make sure ‘this’ box is checked when using the pen too, but you don’t have a close up to see what the box is and you don’t give the name of it. Surely you must realize that we can’t read it even if enlarged. So I still don’t know what you’re doing to remove the power lines crossing the sky area. I know you’re trying to help, which is great, but useless at this point without enough information. Now I still don’t know how to use the pent tool to remove the lines I need to remove.
