    Step 4:    Click on a spot or drag over an object you want to remove. This is however applicable only for

                                                          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.

                                                                Tech Hint

                          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.
