I would like to crop the center out of an image and bring the two ends together. Is this possible? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi

 

How about placing all your Layers in a Group folder then adding a mask to the Group folder. Which would mask

out the middle area

 

Hope this helps,

Yes, I’ve done that. Select and Cmd+J each of the two “ends” to separate layers, leaving the original for now (and hiding it). Move the two together, then use the Clone tool, Healing Brush, etc., to repair the join. This works best if you have a good spot to split each of the sections — it can be trickier when there are people, depending on how they are standing.

Hi there,

It might be possible in Photoshop, however, without having a look at the image we won't be able to recommend any steps.

Would you mind sharing a screenshot?


We're here to help, just need more information.
