Adobe Photoshop/Clone Stamp

Question
Greetings again:

Followed the clone stamp tutorial and was able to 'eliminate' the 'railing' from the last correspondence.  Regrettably, the image is no longer clear.  I did increase the image size to get control over where I painted.  Was there something I could have done to maintain the resolution?

Answer
Hi Phil,

You should never increase the image size - it will distort your image, which is what you are experiencing now. Just zoom in using the magnifying glass (Zoom) tool and decrease your brush size to get into the small detailed areas.

Thanks!
