Image Stacks (Photoshop Extended)
About image stacks (Photoshop Extended)
An image stack combines a group of images with a similar frame of reference, but differences of quality or content
across the set. Once combined in a stack, you can process the multiple images to produce a composite view that
eliminates unwanted content or noise.
You can use image stacks to enhance images in number of ways:
•
To reduce image noise and distortion in forensic, medical, or astrophotographic images.
•
To remove unwanted or accidental objects from a series of stationary photos or a series of video frames. For
example, you want to remove a figure walking through an image, or remove a car passing in front of the main
subject matter.
