If I am working on a single image I know how to use two adjustment layers and the gradient tool to allow different level values to show on different halves of the photo. (hope I communicated that okay).
However, if I want to use two different images (tripod shot, but different exposures) layering one over the other, I can’t seem to figure out how to use the gradient tool for a smooth transition. What I’m trying to do is use the right side of photo 1 (background) and the left side of photo 2 (layer). Instead, I end up using the eraser, and even at 5 or 10% it’s almost impossible to achieve the same seamless transition that a gradient allows.
Can someone point me in the right direction here? Thanks!
