Here is a shot of one of my grandsons in front of our fireplace. The original was in the same location, but my daughter was behind him and needed to be removed. So I took another shot of the fireplace, removed him from the original photo, and placed him on the new fireplace image. To remove him from the original, I used quick mask to make the selection. When I put it on the new image, everything looked okay except that you could see part of the fireplace through his hair. I decided to select the hair, and make a new layer via selection. That made it look right, but when I merged down, it was as if I deleted the newly made layer. Different blending modes don't help. Any ideas as to why any of this happened? Is there a way to flatten the image, and have the hair look good? I can live with it the way it is by printing the layered image, but I'm wondering.
