Kate manipulated To remove the highlights and the red eye I used the paintbrush tool and simply painted over the offending objects. This is made easier by zooming in and changing brush size regularly.

By using the "smart blur" filter a soft almost dreamy effect was created. It is best to experiment with different settings to find the best effect.

The exact settings used are shown in the table below.

Smart Blur
Radius 3.0
Threshold 25.0
Quality Low
Mode Normal
