Alteration

This is an image which I took for the highlight clipping exercise in July this year.

Original image

The aim of this exercise is to remove the statue using the clone too, patch tool and taking part of the background and cutting and pasting it into place. I removed the statue from the image. Hopefully a viewer would not be able to see the alteration.

Statue removed and fence altered

I revisited this alteration after working on assignment 4 because I hadn't used the cut and paste tool in the original version. Having learnt how to cut, paste and transform an image using rotate, skew and perspective, I decided that I would look at the fence as the two black areas irritated me. Using a piece of fence which I cut and pasted from the original into the altered image, I fitted it and I am happier with the result because it looks more natural.
