How to blend the edges of a steiner chain
#2
Blend using a layer mask. All good practice for using layer mask and selections.

   

Add a layer mask Layer -> Mask -> Add Layer Mask using the layers alpha for the mask
Work on the layer mask using Layer -> Mask -> Show Layer Mask
Create a selection around the annular ring of circles. I used a colour select initially and subtracted from that with a quick mask, however no reason why you could not paint directly in with a round brush.
Apply a gradient white-to-black in 'shaped (angular)' mode.
Kill the selection, toggle show layer mask off.
Tidy up by hand.
