    I'd like to mention something about blurring the mask: you don't necessarily need to do it via Filter. You can double-click on the mask an then a window should show up, where you can edit the mask/selection still after creating it. In the window you have a slider for soft edge which you can play around with until it fits and you can even change it afterwards.

    This will get way more difficult though if the shadow area has a vastly different tint. In your example for instance the shadow would often have a strong blue tint from the skylight if it’s a clear sunny day.
    Maybe using the same mask you created in the process could be used for applying a color shift.

    • @JuniorDjjrMixMods
      @JuniorDjjrMixMods 11 місяців тому

      The problem is that he created a shadow in Photoshop just painting in black, this isn't how shadows work. But it is fine to fix, for example getting the color and repainting it with a layer using "Color" overlay mode.
