Layer one on top of the other, and add a Layer Mask with the fade or vignette on the appropriate side. The faded mask can be created in many different ways, such as feathering a rectangular selection, making a ‘hard’ mask and then Gaussian-blurring it, painting with the Airbrush tool, or using the Gradient tool. The main advantage of using a mask is that it allows you to preserve both original photos, which can then be moved, corrected, have other effects applied, &c. at any time after the fact, as long as the file is saved in Photoshop format including layers.

youre right i found out the easiest way and its actually possible in photoshop you just need to practice i guess you have to select the end part of the image which you blur the most then you select the part you blurred already and the part you will blur but a bit less than the end part and do that until the image looks like its fading…
