If filling the background in white with paint bucket doesn't work then I would just magic eraser the background, and if that doesn't work then I would select all with the quick selection tool then copy it into a new layer, maybe refine edge on the selection slightly (using edge detection and adjust) so that you don't miss any pixels. Hope at least one of them works, if not, I will give it a go for you if you like?

Hey,
I've tried all these approaches. The best approach is quick selection tool, and adjusting it with refine edge. But the result isn't good. I've a very hard time removing the gray background between the candles.
If you want, I'd very happy if you find the right approach - I've around 50 images, where the background is gray, and has to be removed, so I'm in serious need for the right approach.
Best regards,
Jimmi Nielsen.

I would use the magnetic lasso tool and then if needed refine the selection in quick mask mode.

Ok so I used a mixture of tools, Polygonal (for the majority) Magnetic (for the bottom) First of all I created a white background layer, then once I selected what I wanted to get rid of, I feathered the edge just a little bit, about 1pixels, just to take the harshness off the lines, then cut it and deleted it, I touched it up with a little (paint brush) white/candle colour, and this is what I got, if that's any good to you obviously if I would take more time on this but this is just to show you

Nicely done SC. I would´ve put some shadow on the bottom though, makes it look more realistic.
