Kirislin Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 I'm getting better at cloning, I only use Canon DPP but I was pretty happy with this effort. Firstly, I DID NOT TAKE THIS PHOTO a person on another forum put it up asking for some help to get rid of some stuff she didn't want. Here's my fix. basil by kirislin, on Flickr and here's the original. basil original by kirislin, on Flickr I dont think you'd pick it had been doctored if you didn't see the original.

kja Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 Pretty nice job!! I admire your patience - unless it was for a client, there's no way I'd fool with major cloning projects! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tlc Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 (edited) Great job, before they had content aware fill in PS I use to clone out the odd thing but it always looked aweful. Actually i dont think content aware fill wouldn't work with a picture like this as you have to select the area just around the thing you want to remove and it blends the background. I haven't got the patience to do stuff like this. :laugh: Edited August 8, 2012 by tlc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirislin Posted August 8, 2012 Author Share Posted August 8, 2012 Thanks! No, definitely didn't get paid for it, for me it was a learning exercise, I was especially happy with how I remade the little heart tag around his neck. I did this one too. I took the photo and was playing with HDR which I've overdone but I was happy with the bits I cloned out, the powerlines, the fence and that big wooden fence post in front of the cow, I remade the cows head and front leg.

Chequeredblackdog Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 Wow that's very cool! Looks like too much hard work to me! :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Are You Serious Jo Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 I've done a bit of cloning and content aware and created more picture with content aware too when there wasn't enough on one side. For some shots it's worth the time if you couldn't get the shot without some distracting background or foreground elements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tlc Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 Great Job, I don't think it looks overdone at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirislin Posted August 9, 2012 Author Share Posted August 9, 2012 I just find it a bit of fun and a challenge. I dont have content aware, so I just make it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

huga Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 (edited) I don't tend to do too much cloning (I hate it!), but sometimes it's necessary (eye boogers and stuff). I am a total gun with liquify now though :laugh: ETA Oops, odd sizes. Was also going to clone out the collar, but haven't done it yet.

Kirislin Posted August 9, 2012 Author Share Posted August 9, 2012 (edited) oooh I haven't heard of liquify, but it looks good too. Edited August 9, 2012 by Kirislin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirislin Posted August 9, 2012 Author Share Posted August 9, 2012 Hey these are really good! Naomi, how did you fix the squinty eye, that one is amazing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naomi Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 I actually copied the eye from another photo I took of him during that session and replaced the squinty eye and made sure to blend the fur around the eye using the clone tool. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
