Damien, can you reactive the psd please? 

Oooh! I just opened the psd....wow!

We have dinner time here, so I will try the same later this evening/tomorrow. I love it! \

Thank you, Damien!!!

All,

This is a brandnew paper backdrop that I used. Still, the paper didn't lay correctly on the floor from the beginning. I did tape it down to minimize movement. My questions - 1. how should I remove the creases on the floor. 2. do I need to add noise to prevent banding?

I will try that.

Is my edit okay? I am rusty....

Enjoy your Sunday!

What do you think, Damien? 

Next time I need to pay attention where the tile boards are on the floor. Can you see the left foot of the sister on camera left; you see reflection being cut due to the 2 tile boards. I tried to use the blur tool, and then a bit of the patch tool, but you still see it. Do you have a suggestion?

Damien, yes, I meant reflection.

All,

I have been on a long sabatical from photo editing, and it seems that all my photoshop brain pixels have left earth :-(.

It is a raw file, nothing done to it yet. What is the best way to ensure the background is evenly white, while the shadows will still be there? I did a search and run into this article. However, as I think overall the background is okay, I am unsure if I need to replace the whole thing. If yes, would I also need to add noise, eventhough the background is white? http://www.damiensymonds.net/preventing-banding-in-backdrops/
