Answer:
The spot healing brush is the default healing tool in Photoshop and can be used to clone areas from an image and blend the pixels from the sampled area seamlessly with the target area.

Answer:
The spot healing brush is the default healing tool in Photoshop and can be used to clone areas from an image and blend the pixels from the sampled area seamlessly with the target area. The basic principle is that the texture from the sample area is blended with the color and luminosity surrounding wherever you paint. The main difference between this and the standard healing brush is that the spot healing brush requires no source point. You simply click on the blemishes you want to get rid of (or drag with the tool to paint over the larger areas you wish to repair) and the spot healing brush works out the rest for you. It is in many ways a lot easier to use than the standard healing brush and extremely effective at removing most blemishes and marks. To see examples of the healing brush and the patch tool in action, check out some of the repairing and retouching tutorials shown in Chapter 8.

Proximity match mode
The spot healing tool has three basic modes of operation (see Figure 1 for the spot healing brush tool Options bar). The Proximity Match mode analyzes the data, around the area where you are painting, to identify the best area to sample the pixel information from. It then uses the pixel data that has been sampled in this way to replace the defective pixels beneath where you are painting. You can use the spot healing brush in this mode to click away and zap small blemishes, but when you are repairing larger areas in a picture you will usually obtain better results if the brush size used is smaller than the defective area. And because the brush is intelligently looking around for the good pixel data to sample from it is best to apply brush strokes that drag inwards from the side where the best source data exists (see Figure 2).
