Step 11:
Next, press the
Delete (PC: Backspace)
key
to bring up the Content-Aware Fill
dialog (that Delete key trick only works
if your image is flattened. If this image
was on a layer, you'd need to go under
the Edit menu and choose
Fill
), and then
choose
Content-Aware
from the Use
pop-up menu. Click OK, and let's see
how it worked (like how I create fake
anticipation here, since you know and
I know that it worked?). Hey, look at that—
it worked. Well, it could probably use
a tiny bit of cloning here and there,
but all-in-all it did about 98% of the job.
Nice! Press Command-D to deselect the
triangular areas.
Step 12:
That tower isn't leaning anymore, but it
is kind of skewed to the right a bit. We're
going to pull another fast one and fix this
while nobody's looking (nobody is looking,
are they?). Get the Rectangular Marquee
tool again, and click-and-drag out a rect-
angular selection around the tower—just
make sure you select some of the sky
around it (that way, it can cover the old
tower that's about to be behind it). Now
press
Command-J (PC: Ctrl-J)
to put this
selected area up on its own layer. Then,
press Command-T to bring up Free Trans-
form (as seen here).
