Topic: Dust and Scratches

[mcduff]

This tip is not a terrible use of photoshops dust and scratches filter -- which is usually gawd awful.

Normally I clean up dust and stuff with a mixture of the cloning tool and the spot healing brush (like many of you).

This techinque of using the dust and scratches filter with the 'history brush' tool is worth considering. (BTW, I am still considering it, I have not decided it is the way to go)

I didn't know Photoshop has a Dust and Scratches filter - anyway, I'm not a Photoshop expert. Thanks for the tip.

Mmm, I never thought of using the dust filter in combination with the history brush...

Domingo: from memory, the filter is under filter/noise... Not where you'd expect it.
