On the attached photo there are two lines running North to south through the gentleman's left eye and the wall. If I use the dust & scratch fillter it does a great job on the wall, but the scratch through the eye is unaffected. I tried using the the clone tool but the areas adjacent to the scratch are lighter and show up. Any ideas on how to remove this?

Hi,

Try the patch tool make a paralel -same thin- selection as scratch and move over it, burn the eye than

I used a very small clone stamp.

The scratch tool did the job-Thanks to all.

clone tool set to lighten and darken, patch tool to blend in clone tool, noiseware for noise reduction.
