Any help in getting rid of this fence in front of this otherwise excellent shot would be very very appreciated.

usathyan, welcome to RP.

cloning and airbrushing shld do the trick. and i can certainly see why you'd like to remove it. nice pic, otherwise.

I gave this a try. Patch tool, Cloning, Healing brush and on the eyes I used the burn tool to darken. Not perfect, but improved. Did a levels adjustment.
