Mask Children's faces with Corel

davholla · 31 Oct 2022

I normally just take photos of wildlife etc. However a few weeks ago I took some photos of fake dinosaurs walking down the local high street which I want to share on flickr.
However I did inadvertenly capture children in them - I have Corel paintshop what is the best way to cover their faces?

Why do you feel the need to?

Possibly because the Everyonesapredator Party's propaganda is getting to him?

Anyway, this page talks about motion blur but the same technique could be used to blur a face: https://www.apogeephoto.com/creating-motion-blur-with-corel-paintshop-pro/

Legally there is no need I believe, but I don't want to upset people.

That is an idea. I was thinking of putting smiley faces on them.

There is probably as much chance of upsetting someone by altering their appearance!
