Remove Tourists From Photos In Photoshop - Stack Mode Tutorial

In this Photoshop tutorial, we’re going to use an Image Stack to remove people walking through a scene. This is a great technique that does require some planning and the use of multiple photos, but the results are amazing!

The Image Stack Mode technique is perfect for removing people from crowded places or unwanted objects that are moving through a scene. The Image Stack Mode will take a statistical average of the content found in all the photos. It will keep identical areas and remove everything that changes between the different shots.

It is very likely that cars and people will move and change locations, thus they will be removed when the algorithm is applied, leaving only the background.
