Hiya I took a picture earlier of some lupins trying to capture the bee! but i failed and he is in the way a bit i think

If you look on the nearest lupin, near the bottom, you can see his blurry figure, now, I'm pretty darn poo with photoshop and the likes. Anyone fancy a go at clone stamping my little friend out?

I have the orignal uploaded if you need it

Thanks, Dan
 
i will have a stab at this at home!
 
Why clone when you have identical petals all over the place you can copy and paste over the bee? ;)
 
Sure you can. It's just an alternative to cloning and often easier. Draw a freehand mask around a suitable petal, then copy and paste the petal back into the pic as a floating layer or object. You can then rotate, flip, stretch, do whatever you need to do to line it up... Bob's your auntie. :)

Have a play... you can do it.
 
here's a quick go...

used the petal from below and some cloning

Like what Noah just did. :thumbs:
 
The trouble with the one Noah did, is that its immediately obvious that the lower left petal has simply been copied - the markings are identical and it really stands out to me.

Clone tool, 25% opacity, soft 22px brush. Did a bit of random cloning from other petals to make it 'unique'.

ahh cool, I like that looks nice! Do you mind if I save it?

Nope. Uh... mind if I edit it? Just noticed you haven't ticked the "image edit OK" thing in your profile (saw Noah had edited it already and never gave it a thought beyond that).
 
Sure, I didn't know there was an image editing thing O.o

I will tick it.

Edit away pal :) will you post it back up?

i see what you mean, looking at it knowing that is certainly true, but i wonder if most would notice without knowing?

good job by yourself too :)
 
Just done my version, but I will bow down to the ones above!

Nicely done! I am rubbish with photoshop so, it's miles better than me :D
 
GfK is a cloning machine. ;)
 
Nothin more to edit. Was kinda asking after I'd already edited it ;)
