I'm attempting to get rid of the window smudges and am having no luck. I've only had Photoshop Elements 12 for about a month, so any tips or opinions on if an edit is possible or not would be greatly appreciated.
What a lovely bird! I am useless at processing so have no idea where you would start to remove the window smudges. Hoping someone else can give you a clue?
Honestly the shot is so great I didn't notice the smudges. Not sure if Elements has a healing brush tool but I used that in PS cs2 for this. The Picmonkey clone tool works too.
Looks as though we are all having a go! I used 'retouch' within iPhoto. I'm certainly no expert at processing, I was just curious to see if I could help with your request.

Thanks for the responses everyone! Now I'm kind of kicking myself because I had originally wanted to enter this photo into a contest but was unhappy with the smudges.

Thanks so much! I'm going to keep working on the editing, now that I've seen what other people are able to do with it. If nothing else, I'll have a pretty picture to hang in my house.
@mej2011 If you are/become an Ace member you get access to pic monkey via 365 which I think has a retouch tool so you can upload your pic, then edit and re-save it directly over your uploaded version.
@mej2011 I did the clone/heal in photoshop elements. For the lighting, I used Nik Color Efex plug in with PSE and used the Skylight filter, then back in PSE, I clicked on enhance then lighting, then levels and brightened up the exposure a bit.

Thanks Jeff! I didn't really get results to my liking with the healing brush, but close seemed to work a bit better so I'll focus on that more. Where can I find the plug in you used? Sorry, I'm really new to editing.

Thanks so much! I should have gone with my gut and just printed it and submitted it. Oh well. Lesson learned.
Thanks! The area that was smudged before looks great and I like how bright you got the eye. What program/tool did you use?
Thanks again Frank!
