Off-camera flash, or steady lights (you can get LED lights fairly cheaply on ebay or aliexpress but I have not tried them), or put something over the flash to direct the light upwards. Since you still have good detail there; you could check in darktable (assuming you're on Linux) or rawtherapee and see if any of the detail can be recovered, but I doubt it. An LED macro ring light is another possibility. But best is if the light comes from the side, so it doesn't bounce off and hit the camera lens. See if you can go without flash at all. ___ gimp-user-list mailing list List address:gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-user-list

Just as a guess it sounds like you will need to "paint over" the unwanted reflestions in the images, replacing them with realistic textures and contours that fit into the surrounding image smoothly. Depending on the situation, resynthesizer tools like Heal Selection might be exactly what you want: That particular filter samples the image around the selection, and uses the color, texture etc. of those pixels to smoothly fill the selection. The Heal tool - a clone tool that does a similar trick to blend the cloned-in pixels with the existing ones - sometimes also comes in handy for removing smaller "visual clutter" from an image. These tools are available in the gimp-plugin-registry package on .deb family (and I would bet .rpm) repositories. I'm not sure if it's in the Windows binary distribution or has to be downloaded separately. You might get different and/or better advice when we have seen your example image. :o) Steve ___ gimp-user-list mailing list List address: gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-user-list ___ gimp-user-list mailing list List address:gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-user-list
