Getting rid of extraneous "stuff" by Isabel

Original picture was awkwardly cropped in the camera and I wanted to get rid of the cell phone cord. The woman's skin had to be toned down. I used Autocolor in Photoshop to get rid of the color cast. Used the healing tool and rubber stamp to smooth out the woman's skin and then Filter/Noise/Despeckle. I selected the skin on face and neck and used hue/saturation/red and lightened it. Removing the cellphone paraphernalia was a little harder I selected the black cord and clip, expanded the selection 2 pixels and then cleared the area, then cloned in the proper color. Had to select areas of the shirt to rebuild the lapel and dots. Lots of copying and pasting and flattening of layers and smoothing transitions with the rubber stamp. (Feathered the edges of the copied areas before pasting)
