Lightroom's Reflection Tool Doubles as a Lens Flare Fix

If you've ever fought lens flare in Lightroom and resorted to painful clone-stamping or dodging, this community-discovered workaround is worth knowing: the reflection removal tool — built to strip window glare from interior shots — apparently handles certain lens flares surprisingly well too. It won't replace dedicated flare removal in every scenario, but as a faster first-pass option before reaching for a brush, it's a genuinely useful trick for landscape shooters. No new subscription tier, no plugin — just a smarter use of a tool already sitting in your develop module.
