Yesterday Alan demonstrated the use of content aware move with his chaffinch but another useful feature of CC is content aware fill, which can be used for adding canvas to a shot. This is a quick basic edit of a pintail shot from today at Barnes and being so close he is a bit tight on the left of the frame
In older versions of photoshop, having added some blank canvas to the left, as the background is not plain, I would have to spend time cloning in the background extension. But in CC, make a selection of the blank canvas and then - edit, fill and click on the "contents" arrow in the box that appears and select the option "content aware" and make sure the box "colour adaptation is ticked, click OK and job done
on this one there is a slight duplication at the top but a couple of clicks with the clone tool will sort that
