Thank you to Sam and everyone for the great information. I actually stumbled upon a similar solution using selection tools and the content aware future.Is always good to know another future/solution.

I am really a novice when it comes to working with graphics, so now I have another question. I understand that when you get to the white and gray checkerboard pattern on Photoshop it means that basically there is nothing there. I have noticed that when working with some programs even though there is nothing there and the size of the photo should be reduced, Sometimes the photo is The same size as it originally was before removing things. You are left with a white or black background filling in the empty space.

I often notice the problem when working with Microsoft office products. Why is this? I know that these programs are not necessarily the best at working with complex graphics. Is there something I can do to the image to avoid this problem?

This project will have been a great learning experience for me. I appreciate everyone's quick and helpful responses.
