I only recently found the heal tool filter and saw what it can do, so tried it on a photo. I think I may have missed a couple of poles - not sure but let me know if you can see them.

Looks pretty good. A little tip though, in the sky parts, where the color should be smooth, I can see lines around the trees, presumably where the power lines were. If you take the smudge tool after healing or cloning such a large even space, you can smooth out those kinds of imperfections. But from a distance it looks good.

Thanks ek
I went back and made the changes. I think I got all the areas

Lovely work sallyanne. Those trees look lovely without power lines.

Thank you Erisian

Nice work, that looks awesome.

Good job there, especially where the lines pass in front of the trees. It must've taken a lot of patience to get that right.

Good work and I would imagine not the easiest of image to clean.

Looks good now, nice work on that. I know it takes a good long while to do a job like this one.

wow thats very cool looking!

When I first glanced I thought something was wrong but it's just an unnatural looking shape in the tree, right towards the center. It draws the eye in atleast for me, nothing against your work just one of the strange quirks of nature.

Really good job for just using the heal tool.

Thank you everybody for your comments.

Thankyou Rod it is a neat filter but I did use smudge as well.

Thank you Willy and welcome back to GimpChat.

Thank you ek. Did take a little while. I found I couldn't do large areas at once and to get into smaller areas I needed the view up which made it a larger area to cover. Thanks for the extra tip.

Thank you. Not really easy but a good feeling to see a job well done.
. Thanks Caz, just a few hours.

Thankyou very much
