If you know how to use Photoshop, your photos are magazine-ready, no matter how they look initially. Photo editors allow you to do revolutionary things to any picture if you know how to use them.

If your hand got in the way or somebody walked into your shot, put the camera down. You don’t need to retake the photo. This online tool lets you easily remove objects from your best images. Here’s how to use it.
