How to change eye direction
I have several photos of my dog where I need to change the direction of her gaze. For example, in this photo, her head is completely facing forward but her eyes are looking slightly off to the side and not directly at you.

Any suggestions appreciated.

Thanks much!
Karen

If you have the CS3 book, chapter 8, p200 might be of use?
I'm fairly new to this whole photomontage thing myself so apologies I can't help more but hope this is useful.
I imagine earlier versions have a similar chapter

Re: How to change eye direction
hi karen this was a bit rushed but basic steps
use elliptical tool to select pupil and copy you new layer
select both eyeballs fill with white
add shadow around the edge of eyeball with burn tool
add a small amount of yellow and red with colour balance
make a second copy of the pupil layer and position as required
hope this helps

Thanks so much, Steve. Wow, she looks a bit cross-eyed, but that actually may just work for one of the pics I want to use!
