Turn a hard crop into a soft blend

Lose the hard boundary.
What does image feathering do?
Feathering gradually lowers edge opacity. The center stays clear while the boundary becomes transparent and easier to blend into a layout.
Rectangle or ellipse?
Rectangle feathering follows the image frame and can target individual sides. Ellipse feathering keeps a central subject visible and softens the area around it.
How much feathering should I use?
Start around 20–30% width. Increase softness for atmospheric blends, or reduce it when the subject sits close to the edge.
