Retouching 

___________________________________________________________________________________

Spot Healing Tool 

Reflection : 

This tool was very much unique and useful in terms of editing pictures, especially with individual photography of imperfections on skin. This tool is commonly used in social media platforms and it's insane how realistic this tool is. I have utilized this tool quite frequently before when it came to editing minor imperfections on background pictures after using the Content Aware Tool. It's only useful after removing certain items. 

Content Aware Tool 

Reflection : 

This tool was first introduced to me when I started using the Gmetrix system and taking the training mode for the Photoshop Certification practice and it was quite simple to get the hang of it. I really like how realistic this removal tool. This also makes it so easy for the background to seem untouched. I feel this was one of my best edited images in terms of clarity and neatness. This image seems realistic enough to make anyone double think whether the woman was there or not. 

Cloning Tool 

                  

   Reflection : 

This tool was quite tricky and I had to retry with a bunch of images to be able to find a realistic feel to it. I was also unsure how to remove the white outline therefore this was my first attempt and I will still learn how to ensure how to make this tool function correctly in any image. I also enjoyed how fun it was to "copy and paste" manually. I also very much enjoyed that you can still edit it even more to make it seem as if that certain object was always supposed to be there.
