I was trying to work through a training exercise in Adobe Photoshop CS One on One where I was using the Marquee Tools to select part of one image and to merge it with a second image.
The instruction talked about setting a large feather radius, 120 pixels in the sample. But the image that I got from the exercise was not anywhere near the image in the book. Specifically the blending of the two images was not very good. I could easily see the sharp border of the new layer. I tried increasing the feather radius to even larget sizes, but that didn’t work.
I tried to alter the opacity of the top layer, but that brought out images from the underlying layer that I did not want to see.
So my question is how do I increase the transition rate from one layer to the other so that the demarcation line between the separate layers is not as visible?
