Removing reflections

[Bristolian]

Howdy folks,

I took some photos of a friends son yesterday. The boy wears glasses and I appear to have some reflections (maybe from the tv) in some of the shots - like the one below.

Any suggestions on the best way to remove them? I have Photoshop CS5, Elements 10 and Lightroom 3 to play with

Any assistance will be much appreciated

Here are some ideas for you.

How about using a low opacity, soft brush clone stamp to remove the green on the right eye, then copy that eye, flip it, and superimpose it over the left eye? I used a layer mask and a bit of painting out to get it to fit better.

Many thanks guys .... off to try it right now

Good effort.

Thanks very much for the help guys ... that's another Photoshop skill I'm now au fait with, but it did take a long time to do the 20-odd images

Took the images to the customer last night and she is really pleased with them. I was discussing the trouble I'd had and mum reveals it's caused by a coating on the boys lenses and they get it all the time when taking his picture. D'oh! Could have warned me!

Suggested they get some frames without lenses for the future
