Photos from a recent trip to Hong Kong. I have these spots in the photos, not sure what they're from? I have cleaned the lens, but they came up. Any suggestions?

I see at least five spots. If you're using a DSLR check with another lens. If they spots remain, it could possibly be on your focal plane. Maybe mildew. Saw the same on our wedding pics. It's pretty delicate so if you're kinda ham fisted, take it to a shop. Consider storing your gear with a dessicant. IMO

I can see 9 spots, there may be more.

It appears to me that you have dust on the sensor (or the glass covering the sensor). There are kits to clean it, and it isn't terribly difficult. If you're serious about photography, it would behoove you to learn how to clean and care for the sensor and techniques to change lenses to reduce the introduction of dust.


Otherwise nice photos, given the Hong Kong gray backdrop.

Appreciate the feedback, I'd like to get better. It was a dark and overcast day, wish they came out better.

The lower f-stop you shoot with, the less you will see spots... something like f2.8 spots are not so visible. shoot at f16 and you will surely and clearly see any significant dust on your sensor.

Yeah... dirty sensor.... Many times simply blowing it off with a squeeze air bulb will do the trick. If its really stuck on then you'll need to learn how to use sensor wipes... plenty on Youtube. Do you use Lightroom or something similar? Most of those programs have spot removal tools that are as simple as clicking on the spot....

good luck.

I hope you don't mind... But just a few edits and clicks with the spot removal tool in lightroom.....

Wow, that's great, thanks Flyjets1
