Question: Digital photo needs spot retouching!?
I have a "spot" on a digital photo that I need to remove to print it!. The location is in a portion of the sky!. I need a program that I can click a segment of the existing photo and frag it over to cover it, as a "blue" that is standard will never match!. I need a professional look!. Any suggestions!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

Photoshop is the standard for this kind of work and you would use the cloning tool (or the spot healing tool if it's surrounded by sky)!.
Photoshop elements also does the same thing and is cheaper if you don't want to invest that kind of money!.
However, I'm thinking Adobe had a free trial of photoshop on their website!. Check it out and maybe you can download it since it's just for this one picture!.
And if you find yourself needing to do a lot more digital touch up work over time, do invest in Photoshop!. Photoshop cs-3 at leastWww@QuestionHome@Com

Usually if you take a sample right next to the spot, you can brush it in and the colour will match!.

If you want to remove the spot from your sensor, to NOT touch it, use this method to clean it, your lens and camera!.
