Hi, Can any of you pros help me with the bright circle on the face of this little one??? I'm thinking it's sun related, but didn't notice it when I shot... I used Canon 350D if that's of any related importance??? I was spewing because quite liked the shot.... Is it able to be edited out? I have Jasc Paint Shop Pro & Adobe!!??? Any help for this mere amateur would be tremendously appreciated xxx

Adobe what

that would almost definately be lens flare, which is in fact caused by the sun. your best bet is to use a lens hood to reduce spots like that. It would be possible to clone it out, but since you would be working over hair and other fine details that might be pretty difficult...

It's a really cute photo though, sun spot or not.

Hey.. we can edit photos.. you just have to give permission first. Like I said above.. if you want it.. email me, if not -

All I did was select the entire effected area -

modified the selection and increased it by 20 pixels, then feathered 50 pixels,

then used color balance to lower the yellow,

then I removed the harsh edge with the clone tool set on about 50 % opacity - Blurred out the hair because hair doesn't clone well..

thats it! Let me know if you have any questions!
