You can easily remove a piece of content
(an object, background, or unlikable person) from a digital photo by
using your image-editing program. You can replace that removed piece,
and no one can even tell that you removed anything. To get rid of
something in a digital picture
1
Select the unwanted element with a selection tool, as shown in this figure.
Don’t worry about getting a little of the
surrounding image, as long as it doesn’t remove someone else’s arm or
the side of a face.
2
Press Delete to get rid of the selected element.
The background layer or any other underlying layer’s content now shows through the hole, like in this figure.
3
Fill the hole with other content.
You can copy content from elsewhere and paste
it onto the hole or use the Clone tool to fill in the hole with sampled
content from elsewhere in the image, as this figure shows.
If you want to remove a person from a photo
but he or she is partially blocking other photo elements, consider
bringing someone in from another picture and putting him or her in place
of the person you’re deleting.
