Moving to another amazing reduction tool which is Content Aware Move tool, and you can be accessing the tool by right clicking in here you will find content aware Move tool. And before we start using our tool as usual we're going to be creating a new layer. As a retouching layer, we're going to be renaming that one retouch or retouching layer. And we have our tools mood set on move. And we have some below layers selected and transform on drop selected as well. Now let's select that cool golden fish in here.

As this tool is acting like a selection tool as well. I'm using a tablet for creating my selection you can be creating a sloppy selection as well. So now we can be moving that fish to anywhere within our image. So Let's maybe say we need to move that one all the way to here. We have transformation options, we can be rotating or fish, maybe a little bit as it's diving maybe, for that fish. And we can be enlarging that one a bit, and so on so can be pressing Enter.

Now we have our fish moved to that place, we can be hiding our selection base in command H. Also, we have structure values and color, I'm setting that 114 as maximum colors. Of course, if you don't have amazing results, you can be playing around with these values in here, especially for colors. And as well for structure. If your element is not fully recovered in its transformation, you can be playing around with structure. So if I set that one to one, it's not really affecting that fish in that case. However, in some other cases you might be needing to play around to structure What keeps that one to seven as this?

Now let's undo that to discover another mode was in our tools. So now we have our content our tool selected, over, instead I'm going to be selecting instead of move I'm going to be selecting extent where I can be duplicating that fish within our design instead of moving that one around. So let's maybe drag that one to here. Now we have a duplicate of our fish can be flipping that one horizontal and maybe enlarge it a bit. Pressing ENTER. Now we have that one blending mostly in that area and can duplicate that one.

Maybe here, reduce its size, rotated a bit. There may be another duplicate in that area. Right click Flip Horizontal and executing that. And as you can see, in that case, it's duplicating our images and trying to blend the two them. It's a new place or new location was in our image. So we have different lighting settings on each and every fish.

And also we have different view settings on each one. However, sometimes it's not going to be giving us best results as well. So let's maybe select that fish in here. And let's maybe try to duplicate it in that area. Pressing ENTER hiding our selection. Actually, this one is blending well, so let's try to move it to another location may be here Enter again month D. Now for that fish, we don't have best blending visuals, so can press Command Z to get our selection back.

So can be grabbing our selection tool right clicking on our selection, and we're going to be selecting layer via cops. Now we have that fish on a separate layer, and we can be trying to change the blending mode for that fish. Or maybe Reduce its opacity a bit so we can be trying first, something like darker color to see if it's going to blend better or even can be pressing Shift plus, to try different blending modes. As a shortcut for that one. Maybe there can will be nice however, we're losing the tail section from the fish because an original fish within 10 Have a strong tail, as you can see. So maybe it's a very hard example.

Or we can be throwing opacity along those blending modes or can be trying maybe Norman and bringing down opacity a bit. So anyway, I'm going to get it back to darken. Maybe using a little bit of opacity as one as it's blending with or this way. Hopefully that was an easy one for you guys. Go ahead and start playing around with that amazing tool.
