1. Creating selections

1-1 Open the image
 Open the image. In this example, the extensive area is in focus. To emphasize the girl in front, blur the other areas.

Before

1-2 Set the quick mask option
 Select the areas other than that of the girl. Double-click [Edit in Quick Mask Mode] in the toolbox, make sure that [Masked Areas] is selected, and click [OK] in the dialog box.
 
   

1-3 Set the brush tool
 Select the [Brush Tool] in the toolbox, and make sure that [Foreground color] is set to black.
 Select the larger size brush on the [Tool options] bar.

1-4 Paint out the area of the girl using quick mask
 Drag and mark out the area of the girl using quick mask. You can correct the detailed parts later. The part marked will be colored in transparent red. You can erase any part that is incorrectly marked using the [Eraser Tool]. Do not worry if you are not exactly on your desired line.
 

1-5 Complete the correction of the selected part
 Correct the detailed parts. Change the brush type and size on the [Tool options] bar, and zoom in the image size. Carefully redraw the border of the area that you selected in [1-4].

1-6 Switch to Edit in Standard mode
 After selecting the area of the girl in quick mask mode, switch to the standard mode. Click [Edit in Standard mode] in the lower part of the toolbox. A dotted line representing the selected part appears, indicating that the mode has changed.
