On Easter Island I shot Moai at dawn with the sun coming up behind, bracketing for HDR. It gave me some interesting star bursts. It also gave me gold glows on the edges of the stone. I first thought that combining the photos created this (alignment or other), but I quickly saw it on the original exposures. Remove chromatic aberration (Lens Correction / Profile setting) is in a preset at load time. I tried manually turning it off and on again in Development. No joy. Does anyone have an idea 1) is it likely a chromatic problem?, and 2) how to get around it. Thanks
 
Can you upload an image to show us what you mean?
 
Does anyone know the max file size?
 
I don't know exactly, but a screenshot of the portion of the image in question will likely fit.
 
I am trying but a snippet of the image in a screenshot is still judged as too big. I can't seem to get it to you.
 
Are you using the Upload a File button at the bottom right? You should be.

Yeah, Hal, I just now, again, used the upload a file button to push a jpg of the photo (5 meg) and it was too large. The png screenshot is 254K and I get the same message. I don't know what is going on.

Going back to my original description, do you have any thoughts from what I said? Anyone else that has been waiting to see the photo, I'm sorry, but please wade in now. I appreciate any thoughts you might have. If a web master is monitoring - help!
 
Have you tried manually removing the halo, using the dropper tool? This works on typical CA colours and will prove if the issue is due to the lens or not. BTW the dropper tool is in the lens correction window under the manual tab.
 
Hi happy,
I will look at this when I return home. Thanks for the suggestion. I will get back with you to let you know what happens.

Perhaps you could crop the image within LR and export it as a jpg. That should get the file size down. Maybe the "Upload a File" button can't handle a *.png file?

One possibility (as I learned the hard way) is that your haloes are from oversharpening, either within LR or in your camera. Can't really evaluate this possibility without seeing the image, however.

PNG files are supported. I've attached one, which is larger than N+13's, let's see if it uploads.

Yep, no problem. Suggest trying again.
 
Let me catch everyone up on what I tried. I exported a jpg limited to 5 meg and a screen shot that was 250K. Next I tried an export a different photo to jpg unlimited (measures 12 meg). I used the button for "upload a file" and get a red message in each case saying the file is too big. I'm at a loss.

To Happycracker: I'm at a loss of using an eyedropper to fix this. Can you point me at a URL for me to learn this technique?
 
I think the Guru's have slightly larger limits... hang on...

1024KB max, 1600px x 1600px max.
supported file types: txt, pdf, png, jpg, jpeg, gif, lrtemplate, xmp
