                         Proximity match will look at everything in the vicinity and decide what texture should be
                         inside the brush. Create Texture will add texture from the surrounding area. Content aware
                         works in the similar way as Content Aware fill does but in a particular area only. Check on
                         Sample All Layers if working with two layers only, one is the original image and other one is
                         new layer for editing.
                 Step 4:    Click on a spot or drag over an object
                         you  want  to  remove.  This  is  however

                                                                               Using Spot Healing Brush Tool
                      Healing Brush Tool
                 Healing Brush Tool helps you to clone areas from an image and blend the pixels from the sampled
                 area with the target area. It allows the user to choose a particular source to blend, which the Spot
                 Healing Brush Tool does not. The steps to use the Healing Brush Tool are:

                 Step 1:    Open the image in Photoshop which needs your attention and select the Healing Brush Tool
                         from the Tools panel.
                 Step 2:   Create a new layer above image layer to add the modifications. Rename the layer Touchup
                         to identify it easily.

                 Step 3:   Adjust the size of the brush by clicking on the slider and set Sample to Current & Below or All
                         Layers so it will pull the pixels from the base layer. Otherwise you will just be healing a blank
                         layer.
                 Step 4:   Then, you need to set a source point from which to heal
                         the affected area. Hold down the Alt key and click on the
                         source point.

                 Step 5:   Click and drag the cursor over the damaged areas to be
                         healed.

                      Patch Tool

                 Patch Tool helps you to replace large objects/items from your image/photo. If you have a sample area
                 or source area, it is quite easy to use this tool. You can select using any of the selection tools and then
                 use the Patch Tool to just replace that selection. The steps to use the Patch Tool are:
                 Step 1:    Open the image in Photoshop in which you want to patch some details or insert some extra
                         objects and select the Patch Tool from the Tools panel.

                 Step 2:    Draw an area around your object, say A, which you want to replace. You can use any selection
                         tools to make the selection. The area from which you want to replace is B.
