Hello

Cloning out the gap in the clouds is not the way to go.
If it's not a dust spot then you should appeal.

RE: Question About Sharpening In Photoshop

Hello

Many overuse the sharpen tool.......why I am not sure.

The 'More Refined' must be in a latest edition of PS, I'm still using CS2.
Selective sharpening works good if used correctly.

RE: Pre Screening Yssy

Hello

You need to re-size to about 1200 wide first of all.

To start off with it looks a little overexposed. A common aircraft (Type/Airliner/Reg) so it needs to be 'perfect' for addition.

I get great results with an Epson Perfection 4490 flatbed. Old machine now.
If you don't want to spend too much have a look at their range.
