What you will get

Your photo with the person or object you named removed and the gap filled with matching background, lighting and perspective, while everyone else, their clothes and the rest of the scene stay as they were.

Common mistake

The wrong person is removed, or two people merge.

Fix: Describe by position and clothes, such as “the man in the red shirt on the far right”, and name who stays: “the couple in the centre”.

Also watch for

A ghost, a shadow or a leftover arm remains where the person stood. Add “remove their shadow and any part of them touching others, such as an arm on a shoulder”.
The filled background repeats a pattern or bends straight lines. Ask for “continue the pavement lines and the wall straight through the gap”, then check railings and tiles.

Try a variation: several strangers

To clear a few passers-by, list each one separately: “remove the man at the left edge and the two people behind the fountain”. Do them in one request, then check the edges.

Still not right? Reply with this

Remove only the person I described by position and clothes, keep the people I named exactly the same, and continue the background straight through the gap.
