Tip of the week

Clone from another image
The Clone tool is an excellent way to edit a photo and get rid of problem areas. However, what do you do if you can’t find a suitable source area in your image, but have a great section in a different photo? Simple – clone from there! If you have two images open at the same time, pick the Clone tool as usual and Alt-click (PC) or Option-click (Mac) on the area you want to clone from. Now go back to your other image and start painting. You could also use this to clone a subject in. In our example here, the face of the girl in one photo has been used to fix her closed eyes in the other photo!
