I just got back from a nude underwater photo shoot. The pictures look great except for 1 thing: my belly sticks out!

Is there anyone who could fix this? Thanks!
 
Well if your belly is sticking out maybe you shouldn't be taking nude underwater pix. Otherwise you can simply clone the outline of your belly to a more acceptable place, and then clone the old belly with surrounding water.
 
Just go deeper - Boyles law will suck that belly in!

Or you can send me the photos and I can have a crack at them.

Disclaimer - I know sweet bugger-all about Photoshop but when talking about nude photos I can learn pretty damn fast!

Are you not going to let us see the picture?

Its around 70 pictures, not 1. Lol

I might not be getting them photoshopped after all. I think I look fat, but all of my friends who saw the pics said that I look just fine. (Although they could just be saying that to be nice...)
 
Also thank you for all the offers :)

If I do decide to have it done, I will send a few pics to each of you.
 
Better still, send us all the same one and lets see what photoshop guru's we have here... could be interesting to see the different results.
 
Be careful, you don't want to be arrested for practicing plastic surgery without a license. Could tell you stories from kiting shoots over the years.

Anyway, you can play around with:

1. Outline the projecting anatomy with the Lasso.

2. Under Edit, go into Transform and pick Warp.

3. This will overlay a wireframe over the outlined object. Gently pull in as naturally as you can into the contour you would like.

Another approach under magnification is to replace the bulge with background water in small strokes using the clone tool.

Cosmetic surgery without anesthesia. Applied in reverse, it can create bulges and a fair amount of amusement in some cases too. There are lots of other ways to do it as I am sure more expert PShoppers will describe to you.

Yeah thanks for spending the time their ricki. No need for us all to have naked pics now. Way to go.

Hey these are just amateur techniques I fell into by accident, the "pros" will do a much better job! Photoshop can do so much, I understand you have to read the directions though. Having trouble getting to that point. Happy shopping.
