Default How to get rid of a metal fence?

I am not sure if this is the right area but here goes.(If it is in the wrong area tell me where its supposed to go) So I have this couple standing in front of a waterfall. They look great but they are leaning on a green fence! I tried to get them to go to the area where there wasnt the fence but they said it was too wet lol. Anyways I was thinking clone stamp maybe? Any suggestions would be helpful..its an ugly fence ugh.

If you had a spare couple of thousand lying around this would be a great time to get photoshop CS5 and try the content aware fill hehe ... or if you have GIMP try the resynthersize plugin its supposed to do something similar

The tools that spring to mind are clone tool, heal tool, and the patch tool the later I believe lets you circle parts of an image and drag texture and colour from another area of the picture.

An extreme way could be to mask the people and duplicate the layer as a background image cropping resizing it to get rid of the fence. If you had a version of photoshop with the liquid rescale or content aware resizing it may work better... but I dont know for sure.

Not sure how well this will work but you could try it.
Duplicate your background layer, then make a large selection of the waterfall, ctrl J to paste it in a new layer and use the move tool position it over the railing. Then move this layer between the two background layers. Add a mask to the background layer on the top and paint with a soft black brush over the railing. Feather the railing out by varying the opacity of your brush and you'll still need to clone some too. Hope this works!

Just moved this over to the Post-Processing & Printing Technique area since Before & After is for explaining how you got from the before image to the after image.
