Taking care of red eye
Red eye typically occurs when you use a camera with a built-in l ash. The light of the
l ash occurs too fast for the iris of the eye to close the pupil, revealing the blood-rich area
alongside the iris. There are many cameras that come with features to help you avoid this
phenomenon, and most professional photographers don't experience this, as they typically
use a l ash that is not directly positioned in front of the subject. Also, there is a solution
that is built right into Photoshop.
