Hi, thanks for the replies! I will explain better:
Picture 1 is a bride standing in front of a grey wall. But a guest is standing in the very right side of the picture...eating. I want to grab a pattern of that wall and paste it in ...covering the guest I dont want to crop the picture. I can do that. I dont want to clone. I can do that. I want to copy a little piece of that wall pattern and make it fill up the selection I make and get rid of the guest. Lemmmme know, Harry .............
