Erasing Chain Link Fence

[mczsuzsa]

I went to a wild cat park and have some great pictures of cats but there is a chain link fence in front of every cat. Is there anyway to get rid of the fence in the picture without altering the faces of the cats. I've tried a couple things but it hasn't worked.

Thanks for your help

Hi Susan ...

.., and welcome to Scrapper Guide :)

I'm afraid that thre isn't a quick and easy way to do this ... its a case of zoom in close and try to clone it away

Have to see the photo to know whether this might help. Dup photo layer, select chain on that layer with magic wand (tolerance set appropriately), delete the chain areas, and while still active, ctrl+j area and back-fill it with a "close" color to the majority of the background, then adjust the new filled chain and clone where indicated. This doesn't work well if there's a LOT of chain to deal with, or a tremendous variety of color in the areas behind the chain, but sometimes is a good helper for healing brush to complete.
