Re: I need help with my photo.....

Might help if you posted your picture so we can see the extent of the damage and therefore give you better advice on how to deal with it.

Re: please help me 3rd time is the charm

This one doesn't look to difficult. You should be able to clean it up with the clone tool, and the heal tool. The hardest part will be the face, but with the full size image you should be able to do a better job than I did here. The rest are pretty simple surfaces.

Re: please help me 3rd time is the charm

Dave has pretty much explained what to do. I noticed a focus problem and ran the picture through a thrid party plugin called Focus Magic and then completed my retouching efforts. Focus Magic did seem to improve the picture.

Re: please help me 3rd time is the charm

cute pic, but i dont know... we're not supposed to allow nudes. ok, just kidding. the guys have the right of this one. clone, some focusing. i'd try a usm. and then maybe a little color correction. the reds are a bit strong, probably due to low light when taken.

Re: I need help with my photo.....

Made a very quick attempt to repair the tears.

I haven't tried to deal with any of the other issues with this picture.

All I've done is clone out the cracks. Obviously with more time all the other "defects" in the picture could be addressed.

Re: I need help with my photo.....

Cloned and attacked some of the "other issues".

I was testing the new "Clone Source" window in PS3.
Not too impressed - seemed to get in the way more than helping.

Hmmm, going to have to try that focus magic. Where'd you find it?

Re: please help me 3rd time is the charm

I posted to this thread yesterday, but for some reason my picture is not present. Strange because it was when I logged out last night.

Sorry if you thought I'd ignored you Wintergoddess.

Here's the picture I posted (just a quick clone job)

My apologies, for some reason I can't upload the picture at the moment.

EDIT: It appears you double posted Wintergoddess and I replied in the other post.

Please don't double post, as it causes just this kind of problem.

I've moved the posts from the other thread into this one.
