[sbedics]

How do you remove the flash from arflective surface such as clear plexiglass? I also should have attached the photo so you could see what I am talking about. How would I do this?

Scott,

Without seeing the image... I tend to use the clone tool or cut & paste (or a combination of the two) to repair the affected area.

If you want to post the picture, upload the picture (for free) at www.pixentral.com and then post the url here. Someone will then be able to help you more.

Wendy,

Well, if you use more than two fingers and the occasional thumb then you probably do. :mrgreen:

Scott,

This picture needs quite a lot of work and a different approach to the normal solution of the clone tool. The flash has reflected in radial scratches within the perspex over critical areas like the girl's face. This makes cloning difficult because the only area to sample for the repair is also damaged.

So, I tried using the Dust & Scratch filter with a layer mask to paint out some of the radial scratches. This has been succesful to a degree - it may also make cloning easier. I'll do some more and then upload an example of what can be done with instructions. This may not be until later in the week as I'm away for a few days on work.

What size are you going toprint this photo out?
