We’ve seen it take on a blizzard and underwater scenes, but New Zealand-based photographer Tom Mackintosh decided to turn Lightroom’s new dehaze feature toward the night sky, with some incredible results.
As Tom describes, this images hurried and born out of a random curiosity. Armed with a Canon 5D Mk III and a Tamron SP 24-70mm f/2.8, Tom quickly grabbed the images while standing in his yard.

The Final Result
After seeing this, I’m kinda wondering why we haven’t seen others giving it a try on the sky before…like when cave men used to think that fire was only for decoration. Even if you don’t really need it, Ben, I’d still like to see what you would do with it.
