Remove text from this photo?
Hi. I am new here and a bit new to photoshop. I have this photo and I would like to remove the word peace from it. I can't crop it because that would screw up the image. I also can't use the eyedropper and pick up color around it and paint over the text. The color around the text isn't solid. I would post the photo or a link to it but since I'm new I guess I can't. Can you please tell me how I can remove the text? Thanks so much.

I'd be inclined to use a clone brush and carefully copy the background over the part to be omitted. Works pretty well with most photos with the proper amount of patience.

Yes patience and the clone stamp tool are the way to go.
If you have a newer version of photoshop you can try to use
the healing brush tool as well. It is better at blending colours and patterns
together while the clone stamp is better for more precise cloning.

Combining both tools would be your best bet. I think the healing brush
has been around since version 6.0.
