Zoe Cresswell
« on: Saturday 07 August 10 12:19 BST (UK) »
I’ve made an attempt at repairing this image by using the clone tool; is that the right way of going about it?  I am a novice with this and would appreciate any comments.  The photo is of a young Zoe Cresswell, former stage and radio star and I would gratefully accept help in repairing such a lovely photo and would also accept advice.

Thanks, Roy

Hello Roy
try using the soft brush & try & avoid repeats when cloning large areas from the same source.
here's my effort but I'm sure you'll get better ones.

Thanks to all for a job well done.  This lady was known as the Welsh Carmen taking the lead in the well known opera for many years.  I am truly grateful to each and everyone of you for some excellent results.  Phew, what a site, and, what members, truly a great bunch.

Thanks, Roy
