: Photoshop: Blend raster shapes uniformly into eachother I have a raster file (.tiff format) such as the sample below and I was wondering how I could do a blend between the round lightgreen
I have a raster file (.tiff format) such as the sample below and I was wondering how I could do a blend between the round lightgreen shape and the darkgreen shape in Photoshop (without affecting the other features -> blueish shape and beige shape)?
The final result will be a landuse layer of a map and will be draped over terrain information like this
The border of the round lightgreen shape isn't clear and therefore should slowly blend into the darkgreen shape. How could I achieve this effect in Photoshop? I tried using the Smudge Tool, this partly works, but a uniform blend would be best.
EDIT
I tried to use ACEkin's answer and separated each shape to a different layer by using the Magic Wand Tool, selecting the shape and then right click "Layer by Copy".
Then in the layer panel, I clicked on the separated layer with the lightgreen round shape and selected the shape with the magic wand tool. I did a right click and feathered the shape by 5 pixels and then again right clicked and "Layer by Cut". I then turned of the created layer and have the ghost area as you described. My image now looks like this.
However I am not sure how to proceed next. I don't really understand the step with the clone tool.
In the end I am looking for a result to achieve a gradual blend between the lightgreen and the darkgreen shapes, the river etc. doesn't need to have a blend as its borders are clear.
Here you can find the .psd file for my project.

ACEkin's method is the correct way, but since you've already done it an incorrect way and given your skill level it might just be easier to airbrush:
Select the Brush tool (B), select the circles color Alt+LMB on the color, increase the brush size A LOT --- like 200 is probably good if you posted actual size, lower the Brush Hardness to 0, paint with the center of the brush somewhere in the yellow area so only the outer area overlaps with the dark green. Adjust your brush size to be bigger still and repeat until you get it how you like it.
Tip: Use the Select → Color Range on the River then Copy/Paste it to a new layer:
Ctrl/Cmd+C
Shift+Ctrl/Cmd+N
Ctrl/Cmd+V
Then do the aforementioned airbrushing on another New Layer BETWEEN the River and the original background.
