However, while we're nutting that out, there's no reason to delay your original request any longer.

Steps:

  1. I used the Marquee Tool to select a whole chunk of the bottom of the image, where the good grass was.
  2. Ctrl J to put it on its own layer
  3. Cloned some extra grass to partially cover her body
  4. Moved the layer up to position it over the path
  5. Changed its blend mode to Multiply
  6. Filter>Blur>Gaussian Blur to make it suit the DOF
  7. Added a mask and masked it as carefully as possible to the path
  8. Added a new blank layer above, and with the Clone Tool at 20% opacity, gently cloned to hide the seam, until it all looked plausible

I re-edited because I opened the raw file (the one saved from the camera). If that makes sense. I wanted to start from scratch when I changed the settings to the correct one. Should have probably told you that to avoid confusion. Hope I fixed it correctly. I can't thank you enough for your time! Thank you!
