New in PS. Help getting rid of my tripod traces.

[Guest]

Hello to the community. I am quite new "photoshoping". Unfortunately this time I can not look at the other side and replace my obstacle with other technique.

I need to edit this, no option, Is for a school presentation.

Basically I have 360 degrees (7) exposures of my room. I did not have a monopod (1 leg tripod) therefore...my 7 exposures have this kind of strip at the bottom.

Meaning the unrolled 360 with the black area from my 3 legs tripod.

Please check in the attachment.

Questions:

1. Which tool you recommend to get rid of the tripod and cover that area with the blankets.

2. Is there any way to do that in the 7 pictures at the same time ?

Thanks a lot.

Draw a selection round the tripod area with the lasso tool then Edit - Fill - Content Aware

(I also added a curve to increase the exposure)

davescm​ wow that look impressive, do you know how I can replicate that to all my exporures ?

That is the reason i did not touch the cuve. I have 7 exposures of the same set that I will merge as an hdri.

So I am wondering if your technique will do the same effect in an over exposure pic and in a subexposed.

Thanks a lot

Edit:  I tried...it behaves differently in each sample of exposure.

Hi

I just added a curves adjustment layer above your merged and filled panorama and lifted the centre of the curve

I think I am not expressing well.

I have 7 samples same picture (7 exposures). All of them have the unwerapped tripod. I need to fill the are as you did and get the same outcome in each sample.

Thanks

I am with you now

The answer is no - each time you use content aware you would potentially get a different result.

So -  I would blend your images into an HDR then either use content aware fill (or the clone stamp tool/patch tool ) on the final result.

You could also take a lot of the tripod out with a simple crop - but obviously that would change your final width to height ratio which may or may not be important depending on how you will use the result.
