Getting Started in Photoshop - Image Blending in Photoshop

In this video, I demonstrate how to use a layer mask to blend two images in Photoshop. With the mask, we'll blend in the sky and water from an image taken with a long exposure with the person, trees, and foreground of an image taken with a faster exposure.
