A new fill tool,
Clone Fill, lets you simply drag the image through
a selection mask opening and deposit it there:
this is a quick way to remove blemishes.
In this case we took a picture, with the Sun in
our back, casting our shadow. We can easily select
the shadow region and then drag and drop a better
portion of the image, same ground floor but
without shadow, into the designated area.
After selecting the shape, use blur on the
selection (not on the image) in order to prepare
it for a smooth transition of the existing image
to the transposed image along the border region of
the selection.
Here is an example, comparing the image before and
after fixing it:
The Europa filter was used first to create a grey
pattern and the Artistic > Weave filter was
added over it. Bot somehow, a tagger came bye
overnight and painted a happy face on it. What to
do?
Here's the original image first, with happy face.
Then below that you'll see the image with the
happy face removed by using clone fill.
