Photo manipulation

This was a drawing I did for Illustration fundamentals. It's the only picture I have of it and of course it was destroyed shortly after the picture. Either it was a cat a dog or coffee that ruined it. I drew it from memory of one I once drew previously from a bench at Olbrich park a few years ago (2006? also long gone).
The bench in this sites header.

I first transformed the board to a rectangle using guides and transformation then clone stamped out the legs of the tripod. I cut out the board using the pen tool to make the selections. Then I did some copy and pasting to get the bottom of the board looking better. After that some stamping and patching to get things more uniform. Last I put a bevel and emboss on it and a drop shadow.
