Lockdown Photoshop Challenge

Something a little different...

With a lot of spare time on my hands during the first 'lockdown' in 2020, I thought I'd keep myself occupied sorting out collections of various old photographs. Whilst going though a folder from July 2013 I came across an image of an Alaskan Central Express Beech 1900C that stopped over in the Isle of Man during a ferry flight from Africa to Alaska. Having missed the arrival I grabbed a quick 'record' shot of it parked up with the fence in-between- vaguely remember planning to see the departure, however ended up missing it for one reason and another.

I paused sorting the photos out and had a quick go at editing the fence out with a small test patch to see if it was viable. It was and I made good progress until things opened back up last summer. Having since used the most recent lockdown to finish it off, the final results with a 'before & after' photo are attached below;

The aircraft is still flying for Alaska Central Express as N118AX

Thanks for looking

You’ve done a very good job with that

I like doing that myself Alex. The trouble is when a post goes thru' the registration and completely covers a letter or number. It is OK if the number is repeated and you can clone it.

What I tend to do is take a few shots moving left and right so the posts are not in harms way and covering difficult bits. Good job well done. Beemer.

Excellent work Alex, especially removing the mesh.
