  The Spot Healing Brush Tool is the default "healing"  and can be used to clone areas from an image and blend the pixels from the sampled area seamlessly with the target area. With it, you literally take a spot of some kind (usually a pimple or some type of scar mark) and can heal it, or make it go away. Below is a Before and After . The chicken pox marks are no longer there!  When using the Spot Healing Brush tool, some things to keep in mind are...     1) Make the brush about the same size as the mark/spot you are trying to remove     2) Use single clicks with your mouse- dragging it can lead to weird color distortions Try using the Spot Healing Brush tool on the following images... 1) Oh no!

The Patch Tool is great for fixing large problems and floors in an image. It does this by cloning or copying pixels from another similar part of the image. The image below shows a road with a leaf. We will use the Patch Tool to remove it. 1) Select the Patch Tool.  2) Use the cursor to draw around the area you want to remove (make sure you join the start and end points). 3) Once you see the marching ants hold the left mouse button down over the selected area then drag it to the area you want to replace it with.  4) Once you are happy release the left mouse button.  5) Deselect the area by pressing Ctrl +D. Do the following exercises using the Patch Tool and post the results on your blog by the end of class.  1) Get rid of the bird and its shadow 2) Get rid of the cut on the girl's face   3) Keep one bird and get rid of the rest. 4) Get rid of the under eye mask 4) Get rid of some of the patches on the jacket. 5) Get rid of the holes

What is the Clone Stamp Tool? The Clone Stamp Tool does exactly what its name implies. Using this tool, you can copy a portion of an image and reapply it repeatedly to cover an unwanted portion of the image. The example below shows a telephone pole in the original image; the Clone Stamp Tool enabled us to cover the telephone pole with the surrounding grass, weeds and sky and create a new image that does not contain the telephone pole. Original Image Cloned Image How do I use the cloning stamp?
