Photoshop - Blur and sharpen tools

For this task, I had to impliment blur and sharpen tools.
I used the blur tool on a low strength and size setting, to blur one of the hills in the background.
Then I used a large sharpen tool on a low strength setting, to sharpen the fields and houses in the foreground. I did this a little too well and wound up greatly decreasing the quality of the image.

Photoshop - healing tools

I had to use three tools, the spot heal tool, the healing brush and the patch heal tool to repair 2 images.
First I used the spot heal tool to remove one of the birds from the image below.

It's almost as if the bird falling from the top power line was never even there.


Then, I used the patch healing and healing brush tools to patch up holes in this wall and then some.

You can tell this image has been tampered with by looking at the ghost bricks in the top of the archway, as well as the warped brickwork along the bottom of the wall. There are also some ghost bricks along the top of the wall.
I used the patch healing tool on a small part of the wall, but most of it was done using the healing brush tool.
