Haze removal artifacts

Frequency separation filter does create additional horizontal distorted lines when applied to specific images.

It was my initial thought that it was freq separation but I drilled down with layers and the artifacts appeared right on a rasterized NEF layer.

I finally found the problem - it is caused by haze removal filter

Here with a bit blurred stripes it has created artifacts below the stripes.

Hi Marekius,

Please could you provide a sample file demonstrating this problem?

Thanks
