Leash Removal Using Patching Speed Edit

Sep 08, 2015
 

This video is based on Photoshop CS6. The techniques have changed with more recent updates. If you're on a more current version, you might like to check out Editing Toolbox: Leash Removal Tips for Photoshop from 2022.

Please note this is a demo only (not a tutorial) and as such, there is no commentary or sound. The video plays in real time so it should be reasonably easy to see what's happening, but if you have any questions please leave them in the comments and I'll get back to you.

The tool I am using here is Photoshop CS6's Patch Tool.

The below before and after shows the leash removal as well as some additional adjustments made in Photoshop to colour, contrast and general tidying-up.
