Reflection Removal

Is there any way to get rid of the reflection in the top left quarter of this picture? I didn't notice it until I saw the larger image on my computer. All I have is the SilkyPix that came with the camera. Thanks.

You'll need a photo editor to be able to 'hide' the wires.

This thread has a lot of good tips in that regard.

BTW, if you have the capabilities, a little Clone Stamp along them wires will deal with them efficiently and effectively

Haha, I have zero post processing abilities But I'll look into the clone stamping thing. The wires don't bother me as much as the reflection, but knowing that they can come out with some work makes me happy.

Oh, maybe it's not that bad then. There's four spots that are lighter than the sky, I'm assuming it's from the street lights reflecting off of the lens.

Looks like lens flare, which happens when you point the lens directly at a strong source of light. Some lenses handle it better than others. In this case, I don't think it detracts from the photo. You can always clone it out if you don't like it.
