Sarah recently contacted me, saying she wanted to use this image in her portfolio, but it needed some retouching and editing and some details removed. \u00a0Dust bunnies, an airplane, that yellow pole, random sunbathers .. and her husband, Mark. \u00a0All preferably edited out for a simpler, more striking image.<\/p>\n<p>About two hours of careful use of the <strong>clone tool<\/strong> and <strong>healing brush<\/strong> in Photoshop, on various layers, got me to the final image. \u00a0I also added an action to punch up the colors a bit and that created a subtle vignette with softer corners.
