I really dont know how to do this. Have a great photo and theres one thing spoiling it. Was shot through glass and the mark on the glass is on the guys shorts(ice hockey). Tried to work out the lasso yoke on Capture NX but never really worked it out.

Suppose you want to see the photo... ok here it is

Nice pic... i've never used capture NX, but for this I used the Clone Stamp in photoshop. You point to an area you want to copy and Alt-Click it as the 'source', and then paint over it the area you want to cover up.

But, considering the shorts are black/dark grey, you could just use the eyedropper tool to select the correct colour and paint over it with a paitbrush tool.

picassa 3 (free) has an easy to use retouch tool. might be useful.

Cheers for that, makes such a difference. Decided to go look for the manual!!
Hear good things about Picasa may try that.

Yeah ice hockey, its very very fast and cold. Had a an attack of the Thom Yorkes lazy eye near the end, couldnt close my left eye to focus.!!

There is a rink in Dundalk, I wonder if they play games there too. I use to play U16 in Dublin many years ago..
