Umm first one, but the blur doesn't feel natural., Just cutting it out then filttering it doesn't always give for the greatest effects. 2nd one just doesn't feel right at all though.
Thats not a filter, its too uneven, it looks like he just used the blur tool.
, maybe your right, i just usaully slelct it withe lasso, though then blur it.[/quote:aefef]
Good way to do that is to do a really loose cutout, about 4-5 pixels away from the actual object you're cutting out, feather is by 2 -3 pixels, select inverse, then guassian blur.
