Thumbs up A real crowd pleaser

I used the clone tool in Photoshp CS4 to remove a number of elements from this shot - can you spot the differneces? (You'll probalby see more detail on Flickr if you click the image)

It took me about 1.5 hours, but I'm pleaed with the outcome. I might even have a go at removing the steps one day!

Nice job! Although I would have left the vertical posts in for the railings where you took the on lookers out. And maybe left in the do not enter sign but that’s a personal preference.

Very vice work

I had considered that, but the flag poles are converging vericals in the opposite direction to the aircraft - removing them gives the shape a little more dynamism I feel.

Also... American flags flying next to a British masterpiece...[cough, cough]

Looks great Jeff. Love the OOB treatment on flickr too.

And good show on removing the poles, but what's bloody wrong with the Stars and Stripes flying alongside that British/French made concoction?!?

I think he meant the railings, not the flags. Those caught my eye too. The vertical posts in the railing...now there is a huge gap. But otherwise a very nice job.
