A tutorial based on what I learned at the Pixls.us forums. (Post here: https://discuss.pixls.us/t/was-this-the-best-way-to-remove-a-large-element-from-a-photo/932/9 ) That forum and its associated website are the best place to go to learn about Free and Open Source Photography workflows.

Basically, because of shadows and because the thing I wanted to remove wasn't surrounded on both sides by what I wanted to clone in - I couldn't use the clone tool, healing brush, or GIMP's version of content aware fill (Resynthesizer Plugin or Inpaint tool in GMIC)
