image manipulation and computer applications

 i started with the original image, i then opened the stationry image of lauren in photoshop too.

 i used the magnetic lasso tool and selected lauren in the staionary image and dragged her across to the blured image, in which creating to layers a blurred background and a staionary foreground.

 when the two images were together i aligned lauren with the blurred background ...

 then i edited the opacity leaver on the right hand side for the desired effect

 i then selected the background layer and changed it to grayscale leaving the stationary lauren in colour.

then i arrived at my final outcome which is exactly what i wanted and im really pleased with it.
