How it works

  1. Upload your photo

    Drop your landscape, cityscape, or architectural photo into EditThisPic. JPG, PNG, WebP up to 7MB. Works best with photos where wires cross sky, buildings, or natural scenery.

    Expect: Simple scenes with clear sky: 20-30 seconds. Complex urban scenes with multiple wire crossings: may need 2-3 refinements for perfect results.
  2. Describe which wires to remove

    Type your instruction: 'remove the power lines from the sky' or 'remove electrical wires crossing the building.' Be specific about location if there are multiple wire sections. No tracing needed—the AI understands what 'power lines' and 'wires' mean in photos.

    Tip: For complex wire networks, try removing one section at a time: 'remove wires on the left side of the frame' then generate again for 'wires on the right side.'

    Copy one of these to get started:

    Power lines crossing landscape photo remove the power lines from the sky and restore clean blue background
    Electrical wires on building facade remove electrical wires crossing the building facade and restore the clean wall
    Telephone wires in street photo remove all telephone wires and cables from the upper portion of the photo
    Overhead cables in city scene remove the overhead cables and wires, fill with clean sky matching the existing blue tone
    3 more prompts
    Utility poles and wires remove the utility pole and all attached wires, extend the sky and trees naturally
    Wires crossing mountain view remove the power lines crossing the mountain peaks and restore unobstructed view
    Multiple wire layers in urban photo remove all electrical wires and cables in the foreground and background, leave buildings untouched
  3. Generate and review

    Click Generate and wait 20-30 seconds. Zoom to full size to check wire removal quality. Verify the sky or background texture looks natural where wires were removed. Check edges where wires crossed buildings or trees.

  4. Refine with markers if needed

    If thin wire segments remain or edges need cleanup, tap markers on those specific spots and regenerate. This is optional—most wire removals work without markers. Use markers to specify which wire section if the AI missed one.

    Tip: Markers are for precision refinement, not required. Try description-only first, then add markers only if some wire segments remain.

Detailed Guides by Scenario

📷

Professional Photography

Remove unwanted wires from professional photo shoots, client deliverables, and stock photography to achieve clean, polished results.

Common Scenarios

  • Client portrait sessions where the wires appeared unexpectedly in frame
  • Stock photography that needs the wires removed for broader commercial appeal
  • Product photography with distracting wires in the background

Best Practices

  • Zoom in and place a marker directly on the wires for the most accurate removal
  • Run a second pass if any faint outlines or shadows remain after the first edit
  • Describe the desired background fill — e.g., 'replace the wires with clean wall' for predictable results
📷

Real Estate & Property Listings

Clean up property photos by removing wires that distract buyers and lower perceived home value.

Common Scenarios

  • Listing photos where the wires clutters the frame and makes rooms look smaller
  • Exterior shots with wires that hurt curb appeal
  • Open house photos that need the wires removed before uploading to MLS

Best Practices

  • Shoot the space first, then edit — AI removal works better than awkward staging workarounds
  • After removing the wires, check that floor lines and wall edges still look straight
  • Process all listing photos in one session so lighting and style stay consistent
📷

Personal & Social Media

Fix personal photos by removing wires before sharing on social media, printing, or gifting.

Common Scenarios

  • Vacation photos where the wires appeared in an otherwise perfect shot
  • Family photos with wires that distract from the people in the frame
  • Profile pictures and dating app photos that need the wires cleaned out

Best Practices

  • Save the original photo first — edit a copy so you can always go back
  • For group photos, mark the wires carefully to avoid affecting nearby people
  • If the first result isn't perfect, try rewording your prompt with more detail about the background

If something looks off

AI changed the wrong area or removed part of a building instead of wires

Why: The AI couldn't determine exactly which thin lines were wires versus architectural features. This happens when wires overlap building edges or are similar in color to structures.

Try: Tap a marker directly on the wire segment you want removed, then regenerate with a more specific prompt like 'remove only the thin wire at this marker, preserve the building edge'

Tip: Markers tell the AI 'I mean THIS line specifically.' Use them when wires overlap other linear elements like building edges or tree branches.

Thin wire segments still visible after removal

Why: Very thin wires (especially against complex backgrounds like trees) can be difficult for AI to fully detect in one pass. The algorithm prioritizes preserving surrounding detail.

Try: Zoom in and tap markers on the remaining wire segments, then regenerate with 'remove the thin wire at these markers completely'

Tip: For stubborn thin wires, try two passes: first remove the main wire sections, then a second generation targeting the thin remnants with markers.

Sky or background looks blurry where wires were removed

Why: The AI had to reconstruct large areas where wires crossed, sometimes resulting in softer texture than the original surrounding sky or background.

Try: Try a more specific prompt: 'remove the wires and fill with sharp blue sky matching the existing texture' or use a reference image showing the sky texture you want

Tip: For best results, use photos with simple, uniform backgrounds (clear sky, solid walls) rather than complex textured backgrounds.

Shadows or traces of wires remain

Why: Thick wires cast shadows that the AI may not recognize as part of the wire. The shadow removal requires explicit instruction.

Try: Add to your prompt: 'remove the power lines and their shadows from the wall' or mark both the wire and its shadow before generating

Tip: When wires cross light-colored surfaces (walls, sky), explicitly mention shadows in your removal instruction.

Color mismatch where wires crossed different background areas

Why: When a wire crosses both sky and building, the AI fills each section with the appropriate background, but the transition may not be seamless if lighting differs.

Try: Try separate instructions for each background: first 'remove wires from the sky portion' then 'remove wires from the building portion' in a second generation

Tip: For wires crossing multiple distinct backgrounds (sky + trees + building), remove in sections for better color continuity.

Multiple overlapping wires - some removed, some remain

Why: When many wires overlap at different distances, the AI may interpret them as a single complex object and miss individual strands.

Try: Remove in layers: 'remove the thickest foreground wires' first, generate, then 'remove the thinner background wires' in a second pass

Tip: Complex wire tangles work better with a layered approach: foreground first, then background elements.

Quick answers

Do I need to mark or trace the wires before describing?

No! Just describe what you want removed: 'remove the power lines from the sky' or 'remove wires crossing the building.' The AI understands these concepts without tracing. Only use markers when you need precision—like specifying which of several wire sections to remove first, or targeting thin remnants after your first attempt.

How do I remove wires from photos for free?

EditThisPic offers free wire removal with AI. Upload your photo, type 'remove the power lines from the sky,' and the AI handles it in 20-30 seconds. No account needed, no watermark added. Works on landscape photos, cityscapes, and architectural shots with wires crossing the frame.

Can it remove thick power lines and thin telephone wires?

Yes, the AI handles both thick power lines and thin telephone cables. Thick wires against clear backgrounds (sky, walls) typically remove in one pass. Very thin wires against complex backgrounds (trees, textured surfaces) may need a second refinement pass with markers for complete removal.

What's the best free tool for removing power lines from landscape photos?

EditThisPic's AI Wire Remover works specifically for power lines, telephone wires, and overhead cables in landscape and city photos. It's free, requires no login, and handles both simple wire removal (clear sky backgrounds) and complex scenes (wires crossing buildings or trees). The AI reconstructs sky and background texture automatically.

Will it remove the utility pole or just the wires?

You can remove both or either one. For wires only: 'remove the wires, leave the pole.' For pole and wires: 'remove the utility pole and all attached wires.' The AI understands the distinction and fills the background appropriately based on your instruction.

Does it work on photos with wires crossing trees or buildings?

Yes, but complexity affects results. Wires crossing simple backgrounds (clear sky, solid walls) remove cleanly in 20-30 seconds. Wires crossing detailed backgrounds (tree branches, textured facades) work well but may need a second pass with markers to refine edges where the wire overlapped complex details.

Is EditThisPic's AI wires remover really free?

Yes — you get 1 free edit per week, no account needed. For unlimited edits, plans start at $3.99/month.

Can I remove wires on my phone?

Yes. EditThisPic works in any mobile browser — iPhone, Android, tablet. No app download needed.
