Healing And Cloning In Elements












Elements gives you the three different tool designs for removing unwanted blemishes, you can even remove very large objects in full edit mode. The three different methods are - Spot Healing Brush, Healing Brush and Clone Stamp Tool, each tools has its own benefits.

First the Spot Healing Brush does exactly what it says it does. This tool is great for removing spots whether they are spots made from your camera, facial blemishes or some unwanted object which you don't want in your photo.

Second is the Healing Brush, the healing brush is great for large areas, a great example here would be an unwanted plane flying in the back ground. Both the above tools are healing tools, the reason we use this tools for this type of method is because they blend the "healed area" with the surrounding pixels.

Third is the Clone Stamp Tool, this is used for more complex repairs like removing shadows from buildings or people.

While you're finding your way with the above tools you also need to know the shortcut to your brushes. This way you can speed things up. If you want ti increase the size of your brush all you need to do is tap the right square bracket key, this will increase it by one-pixel. If you want to decrease the size of your brush just tap the left square bracket, again this will reduce your brush size by one-pixel.
