This may not be the appropriate place to ask, but here is a question.  I took a rather important picture over the weekend at a cocker speciality show of an elderly gentleman and his beloved dog.  I bounced the flash, had him tilt his head slightly, but still got some eye glass glare.  Any suggestions on removing it?  I am fairly proficient with PhotoShop.

Many thanks,
Betty

Hi Betty,
I had a similar problem a few weeks ago and used Qimage Blemish Removal.
See attached below for before & after. It's not perfect but it only took half a minute to do. I was only going to make a small print.
If you are good with PS, I would have thought some careful cloning is the way to do it using a fair amount of transparency and build up gradually; the problem will be where to clone from I would think.
Terry.

Thanks so much for the answer.  It surely looks like you did a good job on your glare situation.  I remember somewhere a tutorial or an action for PhotoShop that did a nice job and was a quick correction for a glare problem.  I'll likely never find it. 

Thanks again,
Betty
