Here are a few shots from a nice day out at the park. Super Bowl Sunday is the best for going out of the house.......

Kent, isn't that lion training center just Great! That is one of my favorite spots to take the kids.

This pick would be great to clone out that break in the glass.

Great shots! I tried to pick a favorite, but really couldn't.

OK, if pushed I'd have to pick the first one with the boy. That's great.

Cool shots. Nicely done.

Thanks all, I might just work on that shot of my son. I think it would take a bit, but would be worth it.

Great shots. I have been in San Diego 2 times on conference but didn't have time to visit the animal park :(

You mean something like this?

[Kent2]

OK, how come it takes me so long............. What is the secret?

It's easy. Just use the clone tool. Set the diameter of it to a few pixels larger than the width of whatever you want to remove, option click just to the edge of that object, then drag your mouse over it get rid of it. Use the healing brush to clean things up and voila!

I gave it a try, I guess I need more practice.
Is the trick getting almost all of it in one stroke?

Very cool set of shots . . .

The one with the boy (yours?) is great but I just love that first one. I wouldn't want to mess with her.
