That plane looks like a nightmare to cut out.
Oh... I can show you how to cut out that Baobab tree in about less than a minute. You need to learn "Channel Masking" as well as using "Calculations". PM me and I will either help you or find a tutorial for ya.
Did you delete your post that I replied to?
No indeed it is strange, I don't know hot it vanished! I do silly things sometimes but not that kind of silly
So I repeat: cutting off the plane was OK but the baobab was worse...
I think I know how to make it, but when the definition of the tree is not very good there are always kind of ghosts around the branches and it takes time to take them off without erasing too much from the tree.
There are a few ways to take care of that ghosting along the edges. Of course using a brush at first to mask them out or trace around and fill it with black or white, but you don't always have to do that. You can Clip a Hard Light Layer on top of the tree (doesn't have to be Hard Light but that's what I use most of the time), then sample an area nearby and brush away the ghosty/haze stuff. I tend to use the clone tool for this instead of brushing as it's easier. Also in your Layer Styles you can try an "Inner Glow" (using various Layer Blend Modes, Opacity, etc) which can get rid of a great deal of that junk. I did something with a house a while ago and it had just a tad of residual blue from the sky. A brownish Inner Glow got rid of it which saved me a ton of time rather than trying to mask or paint it out.
This is about as easy as can be https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2P54l0nP4GY

I think that the German warplane removes the poetry from this image.
I found it looking for St Exupery's plane. It was just a good looking vintage plane to me, never thought it was a warplane. You should do the same
It's a shame because we find an identical plane (Caudron Simoun) to the one with which Saint-Ex crashed in the Egyptian desert in 1935 on Wikimedia: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Musee_Air_Espace_Caudron_P01_JPM. JPG
Next time tell me before the entries are finished please!
