Thanks Pedro, Neo and Rod.
Rod - you are good... you did guess it right about cloning. Jano sent me great tip...I was playing around it in PS and it occured to me that I could just clone the other eye...and thats what I did. I really wish that I got this effect thru the camera....

The eye makes a great difference, well done. Like Neo I would like to know how you did it. All I could think of is a bit of a clone.

Great shot before and even more amazing after the fix on the eye that was in the shadow before. How did you do that?
Guest 23-Jan-2006 02:26
Excellent! Sharp and colorfull... very nice.

:-)haha I thought from the thumbnail that I could ping you with being of topic, but when I opened it up there was the tree,............bugger.......I will have to pick on someone else:-)
Yes very nice indeed & I agree that as the left side of the face isn't in shadow it would be nicer to see some of the other eye. I don't know how to do either without it showing, I think you can only do slight adjustments with the dodge tool.

RK - i sent you an email to your pbase account. It may help, you may have already tried it.... if it doesn't help... then I don't know. I like the image anyway !!!! jano

Thanks Lee and Jano.
Jano... I tried in PS with no luck.
I would greatly appreciate if someone could tell me how..

Really great! Would try and see if I could lighten that other eye that is in the shadows as this would help a lot. Wonderful comp. jano
