photo retouching: how to repair colored blobs
#2
(11-26-2018, 12:28 AM)adrianvm Wrote: I have an old print that has some kind of damage on it which looks like a scattering of little red blobs.  The red blobs don't completely obliterate the image underneath, but rather they change its color.  I'm familiar with the technique of filling in missing portions of the image using nearby regions with the Heal tool.  But in this case it seems like I actually have image content in the blobs, so it seems like I don't want to replace the pixels, but rather adjust their color.  I'm wondering if there's a way to do that.   I have attached a section of the image (at full resolution) showing the blobs which are very obvious across the grass and less evident, but still visible if you look on the subject's pink shirt and neck.  

Just a try, using select by hue (threshold=10) then desaturating the selected areas.
Nothing spectacular, but a bit better.
