Touch up

Today, I've decided to touch up a photo in Photoshop CS4. Here is what I started with,


I started by removing the spots in the picture with the clone stamp/spot healing brush tool.


Then I started to work his Face/neck structure.


Removed the white spot in the upper right hand corner. I did this by using the magic wand tool to select the white spot, then expanded the selected area by 1px. I moved the selected area to the right and duplicated it back to it's original spot. And "fine tuned" the area with the patch tool.


Up next was his suit. I achieved this with the clone stamp tool and the patch tool.


After this was done, I zoomed out to 100% and started thinking what else I can do to this photo. I felt that my eyes were drawn into the white sign (lower left corner) so I decided to clone that out.


Here is a before/after side by side comparison.
