Looks very cool, am I correct in thinking this won't produce images that are seamless without a good mask to go along with the image?

If that's the case I'd be curious to see how it works with masks generated with e.g. photoshops smart edge detection.

Check the masks here, compare them with those that you can generate fast and then please write about what you've found:

I'd also like to read what you can conclude.

yes, the mask is also pretty important. otherwise, you get lots of stuff from the background of your source image in your blended image, which often looks pretty bad.
