I'm new to Photoshop, so this might be an easy question. I'm trying to draw snow, but I'm having a hard time blending the shaded parts with the white snow. Here's an example photo of what I'd like to do. I don't need the very small details, just the large areas of blue and white to blend together.

Go visit some tutorial sites and learn how your most comfortable using photoshop or painting in general. After that blending shouldn't be too hard. Search these forums for tutorials or advice, you'll be glad you did. I always am.

As a more direct answer: Try the smudge tool.

i'd suggest using one of the hard circular brushes and playing with it on different opacities. once you figure that out there may be faster ways, but for that you'll probably want to ask someone else.
