Er, your terms are kind of unspecified. What exactly do you want to do? Just blend two photos into each other so you can see both of them simultaneously? If so, just use two layers and change the layer options to multiply, darken or something else.

If you would want to, say, take two photos shot from the exact same angle, with some difference in the content, then that's another story. Maybe you're taking two shots of yourself, and you want to make it look like you're fighting yourself in the shot. If that's the case, just copy and paste one person over, but the real work to be done is related to the shadows. In-house shots tend to cast diffuse shadows over a large area, so you'll definitely have to smoothen the shadows out a bit, as there's a large risk their eges will be very jagged after you've copied&pasted them into the other photo.

The clone stamp tool along with the smudge tool are very useful when you want to blend objects together seamlessly. If you have a tablet, you can take even more use of the smudge tool due to tool pressure sensitivity.

And no, I don't have any tutorial links, but I hope this helped you out some. If you had something completely different in mind than I had when answering this, feel free to rephrase your question.

Uhh... It really depends on what kind of effect you are going for... Is there an example of any sort?

Yeah, that's about it. If you're entirely new to PS, I'm sure you'll find the layer feature effective. Using layers for the previous example, the shoe could be in one layer, and the background could be in the other. That way, the shoe layer can be "moved around" to any location and still stay on top of the background (or the "bottom layer"). It's easier to edit layers as well, as you can paint one layer in color without risking to paint over another layer which you want to stay intact.

You might also find the 3DBuzz Photoshop video training modules useful. You can find them here:
