Getting rid of powerlines

|
| Any tips on getting rid of power lines in a photo? I have tried the cloning
tool, healing brush etc but still some obvious markings left in photo - have
experimented with different settings to no avail?
Many thanks
Cheers

Having done this a few times and never had any problems with the cloning
tool, might be worth puting in a link to the picture to see what the problem
is.

Hi.
It is not at all difficult, I have got rid of the supporting poles.
Zoom up the image to a large size, and keep the brush size small. I find it
looks better if you do not use a "Soft" Brush as they nearly always seem to
create areas which look out of focus.
You just need to make sure that you reset the "Pick Up" points fairly
frequently, so that you do not bring across any pattern. Make sure you are
picking up the correct colour and density of sky and or cloud.
You can get rid of any areas, where the cloned circles show a hard edge, by
going over those edges with the "Healing Brush"
It is rather like Spotting Prints with a brush and ink, in the old days,
there is a definite knack to it, which you only learn by practice.
