Anyone good at photochopping this pic to clean it up?

Post by YeOldeStonecat »

I need to find a pic of the dock I have in the backyard of my old house, new realtor wants a decent pic for the real estate ad. The only partially decent pic I can find is one I took from the master bedroom when I was getting my septic system redone..so the backyard is all dug up. Anyone able to tidy it up a bit?

yeah avoid taking pics thru screens. you still have that house? i thought you sold it? or that hag took it? you have 2 houses now?

I was going to post a link to that thread, but the SG search results for "bullsh|t" were too numerous

sometimes you have to think outside the box to get inside the box ;).

I know..screens make the pic come out horrible...the intent of the picture back at the time I took it was just to snap a pic of the progress of the septic system rebuild. However...the new realtor wants a picture of the dock in use..for the webpage for the house. This is all I could dig up.

Nope..haven't sold the house yet...changed realtors, last one had a 6 month contract...no luck with him. So trying one that markets hard in Boston and NYC. Not living in the house...still paying the mort on it....yuck! Renting current farmhouse we're in, soon as I sell my house...going house hunting.

Can you make the reflections in the glass look like grass too? As is, it's nice, but you can tell it's chopped.

It would be easier to take the windows out and go with all grass than the manipulation of data to look like a reflection of grass in a window.

But that's me..............

It's winter up here in the north east US. Tan lawn, dock is hauled (due to ice flows), and no boats in the water. Thus...reason for pic is gone.
