    I adjusted the brightness and contrast and Saturation in Coreldraw until I had a black and white silhouette and then I autotraced it.

    Bit ropey, but if you spend a bit of time playing with the settings you will get a better result.

    depends what size its needed at, photoshop wise i would have just used the magic wand to select the white bits, invert the selection then fill.

    Otherwise i would have just used the pen tool to trace it.
