I have literally worked for hours to remove the moustacheoed dark haired guy without the tie in front of the lady in red. (He's the unwanted ex husband.) It could look a lot better. First I tried to clone him out, then I moved her closer and that didn't look right so I tried to move the entire group closer to her. In doing that, I got a double image of everyone's head so I cloned out the second head on everyone.

Anyone have a better idea? (I'm sure you do)

I will attempt to attach both the original photo and my sad attempt. I have had trouble attaching files in this forum. How do you make a file only 200 MB?? Sorry. : / It didn't work. Please help me figure out how to attach a file and thanks.

Make a copy, then go to Image>Image Size and reduce pixel width dimension to 700. (Make sure Resample is checked) then go Save for Web. Save as a JPG to get below 200 KB. If you use the 2-up option, you'll see the file size.
Or email it to me,

Ok, here is the image that I would up with. I tried to repaint my grey suit and the lady's red sweater who is behind the ex husband. Maybe you guys can come up with a better solution.

I just had a (very) quick go (I'm baking shortbread for Christmas) I moved the lady in red, what do you think? You suit needs a bit more work though. Wayne

Good solution.
I wish I had time now... but I'm trying to get last minute gifts together. (My wife is giving me a beautiful antique watch, and so far I have bought her a dish drying-rack... need to get a move on!)
