    Getting rid of objects blocking images

    This uses photoshop and two images, not cloning. It should work fine with LF as well as digital cameras.

    Right on Eric. On the old farm we used a couple of sticks of dynamite (prior to setting up the camera of course).

    When I tried to open the movie I got a message that asked if I wanted to save the file or find a program on line to open it. The on-line program was Apple Quick Time, which I have no interest in, and I didn't see any reason to save the file if my existing programs can't open it. Is it possible to easily describe the technique, it sounds very useful.

    I saw a slide show (yes, they really used slides) about Carlton Watkins a couple weeks ago. When he was photographing along what's now the Columbia River Gorge he carried axes and saws with him and literally chopped down entire trees if they blocked his view. Times sure have changed.

    a mile away and you'll have their shoes.

    I can see that this would work nicely on cameras with shift movement. While there would be slight distortion with any lens and two shots done that way, I feel there are times when the removal of some objects would be such an advantage to be worth the small risk of distortion.
