Have been doing a fair amount of Nightscape Astro photography where I need to shoot two photos for the same shot, one exposure for the foreground and one exposure for the sky. I have been cutting and pasting from one photo to the other, is there a better process for this?

 

Thank you...

If you load the two images as layers you can mask one. Maybe look at exposure blending videos. Quite a few ways to do it so detail here might confuse you.

Thank you for the guidance and the Links! 

I will try this over the next few days and advise.

You can use an APhoto stacking option, e.g. Stack, Astrophotography or HRD merge. Or, for a more manual adjustment you can use blend modes & blend range curves, aside the already mentioned masking option.

Appreciate the advise, I will be working thru masking option, astro stack, and HDR merge options over the next few days and will advise how it went. I need to study the blend modes & blend range curves to understand them better.
