Frequently, at least when working with photographic type images, a fuzzy 
selection works better than a precise one. Don't forget that you can use 
transparency (alpha channel), and fade the edges of a selection not only by 
blurring with another image but also from opaque to transparent over a 
defined number of pixels.
