Before and After .2 / by Dave Hileman

In this photo, also in Scotland, of the Eilean Donan Castle I removed some of the people by the same method as yesterday. It is a simple step if it works well. In this case it did. The person on the left side required a bit of touch up on the wall. The lady in the foreground worked very well with the shadow of the wall filled in correctly. I also remembered this time to remove her shadow. I did not remove every person as I did not think the remaining ones were distracting. I did try something I have rarely done and that is a “sky swap” In this case the clear blue sky was changed for a more dramatic effect that I think suited the castle. Or at least I liked it. I think the sky swap was very well done around the edges and between the trees. So, point two of four, sky replacement.
