Thanks Sepiana.
I don't know if this is widely known or not (apologies in advance if it is), but using blend modes "lighten" and "darken" when cloning can really help the end result.
Depending which mode you choose, only areas that are lighter or darker than the clone reference point will be affected by the tool, leaving the rest unaffected.
It can sometimes help achieve a more realistic finish, avoid obvious duplicated areas or remove only blown out highlight areas for example.

Howard,
You are most welcome! Glad to share.
Great tip about cloning! Some Elements users, particularly new ones, may not know about it.
