When I took this picture, I had no choice but to take it through a chain link fence. Can anyone give me suggestions or tell me how to get the fence out of the picture? I don't have any space on here, so the photo is located at //www.elalarado.com/photography/traffic.jpg

It does now! I hadn't planned on anyone viewing it right away and just uploaded it after I posted.

see //www.digitalretouch.org/ and look at the reader galleries - ANYTHING can be fixed or removed, or so you will believe after some time here! Tedious, but possble to clone and heal things out of the pic.

I assume it just takes lots and lots of practice. I tried for several hours to remove the fence, but just couldn't ever get it right. When it looked good up close, I would zoom out and it would look terrible. I finally gave up and will have to find another spot without the fence to take them. Thanks for the help though!!!

i'd touch up the area's away from the lights then using layers + pen tool with gausian blur make the lines back up from scratch - it would take some time (prehaps to those photo purists too much time taken or editing for a picture)

This can be good practice for doing photo restoration. If you are going to do any significant amount of touch-up, invest in an inexpensive Wacom tablet.
