Microsoft shows off Windows Live Photo Gallery's Photo Fuse compositing

If you haven't tried Windows Live Photo Gallery 2011, it's definitely worth a download. The Inside Windows Live team has published a blog post showing off two features they find particularly cool: Photo Fuse and image compositing, and pixel-level retouching.

A one-time Microsoft Research project, Photo Fuse allows users to makes it easy to combine elements from two similar photos. Got a holiday photo of the kids on the couch, but you couldn't get them to stay in the shot for the family photo? No problem -- Photo Fuse can effortlessly piece things together. It's also an easy way to put together pic-zoom-face pictures.

Live Photo Gallery 2011 offers other handy features you'd expect from a photo manipulation app -- like pixel-level retouching. Check out the blog post to compare the before and after images to see just how good a job Photo Gallery can do.
