Shooping out background car - Help?

[Cojaro]

So, I may have a possible print sale (via dA) if I can remove this darn white car from the background. Think it'd be possible to Photoshop that car out? I tried the usual stuff (clone tool, healing brush), but it doesn't turn out all that well. The problem is that the car is blocking the line that separates the grass from the tree/bush line, as seen in the 2nd picture.

Any ideas?

It would be simple using the large format file.

I did it!



How?

The image is quite symetrical so I borrowed the scenery from behind the car on the right and moved it to the left. There is one big give away but I'm not sure if it is noticeable if you didn't know the car had been shopped.

You mean the view thru the passenger window?

(For some reason y'all's replies didn't show up in my User CP. Weird.)

Both look good! I figured it'd be possible on the large format image. I never thought of mirroring the scenery on the right side to the left on the zoomed in image!

Thanks! This'll give me something to work with now!

I just happened to see a similar example in a book by Tom Ang the other day.

Thats awesome how you did that. I am just starting to learn Photoshop so it is good to see what can be done. Good job
