Suggestions on How to remove this Man from the Picture ?

[augustya]

HI Guys,

I am trying to remove this Man from this Photo marked with an arrow in the first photo. I have tried using the inpainting Brush tool, but it is not doing a very neat job. Any suggestions on how can I remove this Man from the Photo ? 

Thanks in Advance !

I'd use a combination of clone stamp tool in order to extend the wall and the metal framework towards the bottom. Some adjustment layers (contrast, colour, brightness etc.) as well as some inpainting retouches could help with fine-tuning the cloned areas.

I would just Inpaint everything

Oh ! That Looks a neat Job ! So you are saying no Point in Preserving the Metal Stand and having that extended till the end ? It wont be possible ?

Or delete the left part and fill it with a new backgroundcolor with some texture

How did you add texture to the wall ?

It is possible, but it just looks ugly to me

Oh Wow ! But this is what I want ! How did you do that ?

[carl123]

Just copy a clean part of the metal stand and place it so it lines up where you want it (downwards)

You will need to do this twice to cover the length required

The final section will cover part of the man's arm, so just quickly copy that part of the arm to a new layer and move it to the top of the layers stack

OK let me see if I have understood you correctly. I may sound a little Novice so kindly please bear with me 

So you are saying Create a new Pixel Layer

Copy the section of the Steel Stand which connects properly right from the Mid part till the end ? right ? that’s what you are saying ?

And about the Man’s Arm Part when you say copy that part as in directly copy but then how can I move that to a new Layer ?

Copy the mid-section (see image below)

Make the selection of the arm then copy and paste will create a new layer

Ok, what I was asking was, when you say copy these sections, as in using some selection tool right ? and then do duplicate selection and then use move tool in a new layer ? right ? thats how it goes ?

Thats what I am asking ?

Yes, but don't use the clonetool simply copy/paste a rectangle selection from the left wall with the yellow and the metal frame>duplicate and touch up with inpainttool and smudging around colors.
At least that's what a little birdie told me 😜

Hey Just a question. i liked the nitty gritty and detailing that you have preserved in this picture that is the steel frame comes perfectly down and it also has maintained the wooden chair and the subject's hand also intact ? So how did you do that ? Like @carl123 mentioned copy some section and paste again or did you use the clone tool.

I am getting fascinated with the end result you have got is because you have been able to maintain a lot of details in your end results.
