Cutting out image from background

When you need to cut out an image from the background, the test is to have clean edges. You can achieve this with the Pen Tool. Some have a horror of the Pen Tool. Therefore let me show you how to do it with the Magnetic Lasso, one of the basic tools and also how to eliminate errors in edge selection.
I will be using this free stock image. I will cut out the girl cleanly from the image with the lowly Magnetic Lasso.
The image has been cut out cleanly with the Magnetic Lasso.
I have place the cut out image on a new background.
The tutorial is here.
