Hi Eugen, Thanks for your comments. For an image such as a pen you could try this method with a low tolerance on the magic wand tool and instead of choosing ‘select similar’, press shift and continue clicking on the areas you want to delete. If that still picks up areas within the pen then I would suggest to use a combination of the eraser tool and wand – the eraser to carefully draw a line around the pen and then the wand on a high tolerance to select the background.
