    Hi there,

    As you're looking to create the same effect as depicted here:

    You need to select the quick selection tool, then click on the helmet to make a selection. (keep clicking on different ares of the helmet until you have a complete selection).

    Once you have the helmet selected, go to Select and choose Inverse Selection Or Tap Ctrl+Shift+I (Windows), Cmd+Shift+I (macOS) to inverse the selection.

    Then go to Filter > Blur > Gaussian Blur and increase the blur effect by sliding the slider.

    Regards,
    Sahil

    To be able to fine-tune Filter settings later on one can apply them to Smart Objects.

    After you finished the selection of all area of you object, you can press ctrl+J to duplicate layer in one place then use under layer then go filter>blur>gaussian blur>then you can use its level what you want to effect.

    Thank You Friend!
