A short and sweet post today as I am rushing out the door to U2 in Croke Park, having just returned from a flying visit to Cork to meet my new nephew – photos from both of these events will hopefully feature in posts in the near future. In the meantime, a photo from a Dublin Zoo visit which involved some giraffe cloning.
Ok not really giraffe cloning, but there is a lot of cloning in this shot – can you spot where? And can you figure out why? If not, then the cloning was successful – the idea is to keep it from being noticed.
Initially I had cropped this as a portrait, but for my Animal Portraits panel for DCC, it sat better as a landscape. Behind his right ear though was a red heating light (in the cage) which was completely blown out and took the eye from any other area of the picture.
My solution was to clone areas of the cage over the light and remove it… probably not very subtly done, and a bit of a blunt force solution to force a crop from the image that it probably wasn’t really suited to, but it got the job done.
