When I try and clone out large distracting light spots, ie say lens flare, circles on an patterned bokeh, or stray duck feet in a photo I've noticed that it is not as easy to do as cloning out a dust spot on a blue sky.
Cloning seems to create a very noticeable pattern, even when if I select what I think is a good source area. Sometimes using the healing brush after cloning helps and sometimes not.
Are there any tricks to doing it well?
Thank you.
