Retouching: Phone

This was a retouch job taken from an initial shot using a poor, non-full frame image sensor. The initial image is lower resolution, and contains a great deal of ambient light.

I was able to salvage the image with several adjustment layers, and selective blurring, and resharpening to give the image a crisp, clean look. Pen tool selections and tonal repainting was required on some of the details.

The final image was repaired for professional output to web ads.
