2 ways I can think of 1. using the lasso tool/freehand selector or 2. using the eraser starting in outer edges moving inward .
I have never had good luck with the freehand tool. To me it's just as easy to wipe out the portion I don't want.
Always make a copy first, window--> duplicate. Then use this image to alter.
Promote background to layer Choose background color, usually something that stands out.
Select eraser and set hardness, density and opacity to 100% Erase (actually replace) unwanted portion of image with selected background color.
You will need to zoom in quite close in order to erase pixels close to your image
Now it makes it alot easier to select the image with the magic wand. So select it and hit delete. That will wipe out the background color and leave it transparent

Click the arrow next toselction tool. (it is a dashed box) The pick out the magic wand. Now click on the back round of your image and it should select it. Then go to edit - cut. If there is anymore of the backround left repeat what you just did Also you can try the backround eraser tool. Find the eraser tool (looks like a eraser) and click the arrow next to it. Click the backround eraser and set its size to 200. Click on the backround and it should erase some of it. Click in the areas that were not erased ~dan
