- [Voiceover] In this movie, I'll show you how to rebuild…an octopus's garden quite literally here inside Photoshop.…And so what we're gonna do is take that merged photograph…from the previous movie…and go ahead and rebuild its background,…as we're seeing here, with an absolute minimum of repetition…and a maximum of reality.…And along the way, we're also going to enhance…the contrast of the image as well as sharpen it.…All right, so I'll go ahead and switch back…to our image so far, and the way you might…approach this problem is to zoom out a little bit like so…and then create a new layer at the very top of the stack…by clicking on this orange layer…and then pressing Control + Shift + N…or Command + Shift + N on a Mac.…
I'll go ahead and call this layer healing…because we're gonna be painting with the healing brush,…and that means I need to go ahead and select…the Spot Healing Brush tool from this fly-out menu.…All right, the next thing you want to do…is increase the size of your cursor quite dramatically…by pressing the right bracket key.…
