Love this. On View Full, I might have blurred the EDGES of either the elephant layer or the water-bubbles layer, or (probably) both, so the elephant doesn't look quite so "cut-off" (to me, anyway). Highlight either layer, or both, in turn. CTRL-T to select that layer, then go down and click "Add a Layer Mask" icon. Then deselect. With cursor on the mask, hold down ALT and click. Black and white image of that mask opens up. Run Gaussian Blur and/or Levels to soften the edges of that layer mask to the degree you like. Then right-click on the Layer Mask icon on the layer and Apply Mask. Makes for a less obvious demarcation at the edges.
