Need Help Asap.....important.

Is there any way to fix someones eyes when they arent looking at you, so that they are. This is my brother. he was murdered on friday, and we need this photo to make them into cards. to be given out during the mass.
however, hes not looking straight ahead and am hoping someone can help me.

Re: Need Help Asap.....important.

There may be someone who can help you come on soon it can be done, but do you have a photo with his eyes looking the "right way " that will help tremendously as they would be able to clone/select from one image to the other

Re: Please. Need Help Right Now

Hi

I am not the best in the world, but I mangaged to get the eyes to look straight forward. I am so sorry about your brother, especially at this time of year, this must be so hard for you and your family. I lost my mom and my dad at Christmas.

Please let me know if this is ok, perhaps others can do better than me, but I saw no one had posted to I thought I would give it a try.

Re: Please. Need Help Right Now

Please accept my condolences. On this I made an attempt to adjust the eyes and correct the area on the mouth where the teeth are not showing. Airbrush to smooth. I am attaching a comparison picture and a separate picture. Please be advised that I am not a professional retoucher.

Re: Need Help Asap.....important.

I see this request was also posted in the Photo Retouching form where I made my response. Perhaps all of the post could be merged under one thread.

Re: Need Help Asap.....important.

My friends, I am so proud to be associated with all of you and especially the ones who took time to help this lady. This is what it's all about folks, honor, grace, compassion. My blessings for your loss.
I have made much more than a fair living at this business since 1989 and as I have said before, I have a list of clients worked out so that I can now travel and take only the assignments that move me in some particular way. It makes me proud to know that so many of you jumped right up and took this situation to heart. Trust me folks, life experience has taught me that Karma is a powerful force and you all have a healthy dose waiting for you.

Namaste to you all,
c

Re: Please. Need Help Right Now

thank you so much everyone. This means a whole lot to me..... I love retouching photos, but this is a photo that i just couldnt do. Especially not for the purpose it'll be used for. Thank you for thinking about us, and making this just a bit easier on me.
i will send this out to be printed today.
again thank you.
