hi – please see the above image. i first tried using the pen tool and placing 100’s of anchor points around all of the various edges to cut out the photo. i found this a little too tedious to do it that way.
so then i just created a layer mask and painted with soft edges the surrounding areas to get the effect you see above.
i’m wondering if anyone could offer tips for better ways to cutting things out than the way i described above. i couldn’t go too close to the edges with the paint brush [in mask mode] because then it would get rid of the picture i wanted to keep. so that’s why you see some little whites around some of the edges.
any help is appreciated.
