Yeah, I didn't like the missing foot at all!...I'm not sure I like all the headroom above the last image posted...only other thing to do would be to add more foreground in front of her hands. DC~

Start cloning right above her buttocks, delete the legs and foot, and you have your shot. Her photo will be large enough to see then. Randy I thought about that option too...that way it'd appear her legs were straight. Thanks. DC~

Feb 18, 2010 12:43 | #11 recrisp wrote in post #9633910 It looks good that way actually. The cloning needs more work, but the idea of it looks good. (I'm assuming that you were doing a 'quickie' on it)  Randy Yeah, that was a quik PS job! Thanks for the input. DC~

recrisp Goldmember More info | Feb 18, 2010 12:59 | #14 Yeah, a lot better, but when you do the real one, (if this isn't it) I'd have a leaf or two there just like the other side, not overpowering it, but just enough to make it balanced.
