Hello Gary Talking to a photographer that works and lives nearby , we often talk about best ways to get the best out of images , his suggestion (unless you have already tried this) copy/paste a much larger than you need selection , make it a new layer under main image , move that bottom layer left/right/up/down until it sort of looks umm ok then with the erase tool set at a large size with opacity turned down down , I think he means to have it blend in (as much as you can) definitely I was told without using the smudge tool , also mentioned that using a non standard brush eg smoke/cloud/splatter type brushes set to large size could also help . My suggestion is keep experimenting and enjoy and that's what art is all about... you never know when the next - "Happy Accidents In Art" will happen Hope it Helps & Good Luck -- fa-flyingalone (via www.gimpusers.com/forums) _______________________________________________ gimp-user-list mailing list List address: gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-user-list
