Clone Stamp Tool
With Elements 2.0, Im trying to take a sky from one picture and use it to replace a bleached out sky in another.
The intended result is a group of people in the foreground with a beautiful sky in the background.
Ive created my new Image but the area between the people in the picture and the new sky needs cleaning up.
Apparently, when I used the Magic Wand to select the people being used in the new image, the select wasnt as tight as I would like. As a result, the new image shows several white areas around peoples heads.
To correct this, Im attempting to use the Clone Stamp Tool and take a good part of the sky and copy/clone it to the areas needing touching up.
Ive gone to the Sky layer, put my cursor on the target area, pressed the ALT key, and then dragged the brush to the areas needing the fix. Nothing happens.
I can use the Clone Stamp on the People layer but with the Sky layer Im not getting any result.
What am I doing wrong? Your suggestions will be appreciated.
Thanks.
