Using Photoshop Quick Mask

http://www.homephotog.com/tutorials/PS-mask.shtml

This tutorial is based around Photoshop CS2, but the basics can be utilized with other
software programs to take a portion of one picture and merge it with another.


The actual process is relatively easy and this particular conversion took 5 minutes to perform.
Of course, digital images will differ and some will be more difficult than others to crop
out the unnecessary image sections. Patience is key.


For this tutorial, two random images were found via the internet. The desired end result
is to take the picture of a person and put them in another image and have the outcome
look as natural as possible. When attemting to perform this, try and utilize images that
have similar lighting or the final result will be obviously software-created.
