Didn't spend long doing it so it's by no means perfect. I'm sure there are better Photoshoppers than me on here but I'd be happy to give it a proper go if you want to send me the full res image.

Regards,
John.

I think you take some of the track, grass and gravel from another part of the pic and paste it over the top of the other bike and blend the lines together.. I could be wrong tho.. :rolleyes:

There are a number of tools in the Photoshop palette that you can use to do this kind of thing: Clone Stamp, Spot Healing Brush, Healing Brush, and the Patch Tool.

It's actually fairly straight-forward but as I said I'm no expert, even though photography is a big hobby of mine. As Nick has said, you basically use the tools mentioned to clone other similar parts of the image, e.g. the track, and then try to blend them together so it doesn't look too obvious that something's been removed.

I've only really started to pick up Photoshop recently. A couple of months ago I would have thought it easier to dress up like Nick, re-spray my bike blue and find an empty racetrack to re-create the shot. But I can't achieve the same lean angles so that would never have worked. ;)

As with most things, it's amazing how much and how quickly you learn when you try it out for yourself.
