Does ur person image have the same lighting (angles, contrast etc) as ur background? because if ur lighting isnt similar in the images it wont work
if u use ps cs2 use the colour match (adjustments>match colour) to get the colours correct
also, u have to bear in mind some images will never match others (unless u manually paint shadows etc) |
