Can anyone point me to a tutorial or give me a quick primer on how to further blur the background on a photo? I am fairly new to Paintshop Pro X2. Below is a link to a sample photo: as you can see, tracing around the feathers is going to be tricky.

Hello,
- Outline the foreground subject with Freehand Selection tool
- Press [Ctrl+H] and "soften" the selection by 5-15 px
- Press [Ctrl+Shift+I] to invert the selection (ie, to select background area)
- Pull down "Adjust > Blur > Gaussian Blur" soften the background to your taste
Well as it X2 Then you might try image. adjust .Depth of field.
sort of corels way of doing Andrei's way
