| Okay, so I understand how to clone to make like a bunch of the same person in the same picture. But a lot of people talk about cloning things OUT of a picture. How exactly does that work? |

You basically clone IN the background over the offending object. Make sense?

Well, first you need a sample of the photos DNA. Then you...

Example: power lines
Sample some part of the image that is similar to what you want instead of the power lines then just stamp over the power lines to make them disappear.
The power lines have then been cloned out.
Cloning is the act of replacing a part of the image with something else.

| usually you select a section very near to what you want to remove so that you get the same (or near same) pixel color/brightness, etc. It really isn't different than cloning others in, just usually use a smaller brush size and I tend to zoom WAY in to get more precise. The healing tool is awesome for this as it takes an average from where you are cloning from and where you are cloning to and "heals" with that. It tends to give a more realistic look to it. You may have to play with your hardness and flow to get it right. |

| Okay I get it. Thats what I have always done to remove things but because with cloning multiples of the same person in 1 pictures involves multiple layers I was assuming it would be the same...Thanks |

I always make my cloning repairs onto a new layer also, using the "use all layers" option to sample from the lower layer. That way you can always start over if you make a mistake, and it saves having to duplicate the whole Background Layer in order to work non-destructively. |
