I am going to post it on the PP thread and see if I can get some help in dealing with those signs without spending hours in PSFeb 8, 2019 07:04:45 #

You haven’t chosen the easiest subject to cut out but I would have expected Ps to deal with it better than here. Try reselecting the tool and using ‘refine selection’, brush around the skyline with the ‘forked-looking’ brush. Then reduce the selection by three or four percent or whatever works best and you should see some improvement. If all else fails, go to Topaz and use their masking programme, it’s pretty good. Like the idea here, the sky is very dramatic and that hand-shaped cactus with its upright index finger is perfect!

Sky finally cleared after several days of gray.
Hi Curmudgeon, Beautiful image.
Magentoman give excellent advice. In addition, there's a new feature in PS, the 'Background Erasure Tool'. I've used it and it works extremely well for cutting out difficult backgrounds. You might give that a try if you don't have Topaz.
