Starting a new thread for this next photo. Mostly a 'broad brush' clean up so far. Damage on the boy's skin and clothes still to do. Patching & cloning in the background too. Any comments/suggestions very welcome, as always! I've blended in one or two details (luminosity) from the blue channel using the tutorials by Bambi & Hannie.
The boy's wearing a Baton Rouge C.B. Pennington Jr. YMCA Baseball T-shirt. I searched for a similar photo via Google/Facebook but no luck so far.
