My mom & I took a trip out to Lancaster, PA this past weekend & we came across a "deer farm" i guess it was. The bucks had huge racks, but were all fenced in, so I used the Landscape mode on the camera hoping it would focus on the deer & not on the fence surrounding them. Is there any way to fix the fence blur in the foreground besides going thru & cloning each part out?
Any comments/critiques/suggestions welcome :)
Thanks!

Easy, no. Ton of cloning, yes. Sometimes you can blur it into the background, but in your case I think its too much of a contrast to blur and it would look freaky since the bg is also fencing. You might try PS's extract tool to remove him from the scene entirely, then work with what's left.

Tried changing it to a different background, I know it's not perfect, but any thoughts/suggestions/comments?
Thanks

Next time use the portrait mode. That is more likely to use a more open aperture, resulting in shallower dof / blurred background.
The landscape mode will stop the lens down as far as it can, resulting in a very wide dof / focus from foreground to infinity.
Can't help with the fence.
Must read better, the above would only help (maybe) with the bg fence.
