I'm not an expert with PS, but the hard part is to not loose detail in the girls hair and the detail in her dress ruffles. a mask has to be created to not loose detail in those areas, and then the background will need to be separated from the girl, and the buckets cloned into the street. I have played around with similar photos to familiarize myself with those tools, and it is time consuming. I personally would try to retake the picture instead of spending a few hours behind a monitor.

another thought, mask around the girl, and then maybe gaussien blur the background. Or maybe a tight vertical crop. Just a few suggestions. andrew

well - what good is working up a small version - if you post a link to the full size image you'll actually be able to do something with it.

Anyway here is a 2 minute cloneing job
