I took a number of images from a fixed position, the background on each is identical, is there a quick process to quickly mask off or change the background? Would something like a layer set to difference work? Probably not. I'm sure there has to be a process.

I am looking for a method that does not involve editing each of the 200 shots by hand so painting a mask is out of the question. :)

Thanks much!

What is it you want to mask? A person?

It is a series of water drop images where I didn't mask my background since I was just playing around but in hindsight I wish I would have had a backdrop.

I have just noticed for some reason they are not identical, I assume it is the effect of the lens focing, some seem about 0.5mm closer or further away than others. So a simple masking process will probably fail.

Maybe I should just retake them. :)

Masking waterdrops is difficult because you can still see the original background through the waterdrops. I tried it before.
