Hey folks, just wondering if it would be possible to remove the poles in the following image:
P1000248_1.jpg


It's a great images I happened to snap, but the poles and freeway sign distract the viewer. I thought about clone stamping it out, but I was wondering if there are any other techniques I could/should use. Or if it's impossible, let me know so I don't waste my time either. It doesn't have to be a perfect removal, but as long as it doesn't distract the eye. If only I was lucky to capture just the Superdome and the billboard. =/

Thanks for any insight!
 
Clone stamp is the most likely solution imo. I did the littler bits, I'm not going to take on that red cross billboard. It'd just leave a big spot. Better than nothing I suppose.

Whoa, you didn't have to do it, I was just looking for ideas. But that's exactly what I wanted, the billboard is one of the reasons I love this picture. I wasn't planning on cloning it out.

How can I ever repay you!
 
My excuse is that I'm bored and high, and for some unimaginable reason really like editing photographs while stoned. :confused: :eek:

Is it odd that THAT just made me horny?
:D

Awesome work Rico. I will have to learn your ways of the clone stamp technique.
 
I suppose it would depend on if the hornyness was derived from my clone-stamping, the :smashf: smiley icon, or the combined phrases "I did the littler bits" and "It'd just leave a big spot" to determine if that is, in fact, odd. Offhand I would say yes. ;)
