Original<\/h2>\n

I am lucky to have a great little poodle who will gladly do anything I ask him to do as long as he can have jerky treat at the end. For this photo I draped an old cape from a Halloween costume I once wore. I picked up a little crown from the .99 cent store. I frizzed up his hair a little so it would hold it and set up a couple strobes. I shot with the light box to the right and a reflected umbrella to the left a little higher. The shot wasn’t perfect and needed a little help so I did a little\u00a0 photoshop as you will see the original below:<\/p>\n

\"1\"<\/a>I used “content aware” to take out the edge of the black curtain in the background.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"2\"<\/a>I used the patch tool to fix his hair.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"3\"<\/a> I added sparkle to his crown using the star brush tool with white as the foreground color<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"4\"<\/a>I used the clone rubber stamp tool and sampled light hair with opacity of 50% and set the blend mode to lighten to clean the eye stain under his eyes<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"5\"<\/a> Lastly I used the glamor glow from Nik Efex to give a softness and I masked his face so that it didn’t apply to his eyes and nose.<\/strong><\/p>\n
