Using Photoshop’s powerful AI tools

The AI (Artificial Intelligence) in software these days is quite astounding and makes light work of some many little jobs, which used to take an annoying amount of time, like filling in missing areas of your backdrop. Now it’s a simple job of using the lasso tool to make your selection, right-click and select either Fill or the new Content-aware fill. Either do an amazing job.
