Animal Eye glow

[z71redroot]

I recently took a beautiful picture of Bambie--who was less than 6 feet away from me--by some miracle. But I got a blue glow in his eye due to the flash going off. It was early morning and the woods were semi-dark. Does anyone have successful tips on how to fix this "glow". I really love this photo and I am heart-broken that he has blue glowing eyes!

Your help would be so much appreciated.

Hello, Welcome to the photoforum! That was a Nice deer

I edited extra contrast and removed blue from deer's eyes.

In Image games and then The editing game, I took a picture of a deer at the same angle as you, you're welcome to use those eyes if you'd like.

Well actually I had a little time, if you liked the branch I did one like that too. I'll track this thread in case you are interested.

Oh also I noticed the image has about a couple dozen tiny dots. If that is not part of the charm of the picture for you, they can be removed too.

I did use patch tool for removed branches from deer.

All of you are awesome!!! The jobs you did on the fawn was great! Now--tell me how you did it!! I am so eager to learn! I have more doe pictures with glowing eyes that I'd like to fix! The darn flash keeps popping up cause the woods are so dark. This is a new camera, Nikon D80, so I haven't quite yet learned how to do anything more than the Auto setting.

Thank you so much! You guys are terrific!
