Blending Copied Selections into new Photo?

I pasted a new selection into another photo and want to make it look like it was there all the time. How do I blend it in so the edges look natural?

Only left handed people are in their right mind.

Check different feathering options as you are pasting it into the other picture. Feathering is on the bar at the top.

Create a layer mask for the new layer, and put a bit of blur on the mask.

Drag your subject directly onto the file containing your background image (without making any selection).
Once your subject is the topmost layer, add a layer mask. Use Brush Tool set to Air Brush mode. And set the hardness to 50 %. This will ensure that edges dont become too soft. Once you paint your layer mask you would have achieved the eight blending of your subject with the background image.
