Hi All!
I have been working on a several pictures recently that have finger prints embeded into the picture. The pictures are about 70 years old and have black (mold) like finger prints, or on a few white fingerprints.
I have tried using a dust and scratch filter and then making a snapshot and eleminating the black mold with the history brush. Often it blurs too much and I end up adding noise back in. I have similarily tried using the blur tool and layers set to darken or lighten depending on the dust color. Both methods are a ton of work. I don't mind the clean up but wonder if there is another method that would entail channels to eliminate the black finger prints?
I've attached one of the photos I am presently working on. I have had to resize it a few time to post. Hopefully it will be large enough for you to see the fingerprints in question.
Your feedback would be greatly appreciate.
