What does Feathering effect do in photoshop?

Answer 1

Explanation:

Feathering a selection blurs the edge of the selection. The selection can then be copied and pasted to create a new image or copied and pasted onto an existing image to create a composite image. Using a selection tool, make your selection. HINT: Leave a little room along the edges for the feathering action.
