Photomontage is the process and the result of making a composite photograph by cutting,gluing, rearranging and overlapping two or more photographs into a new image.

May be seamless

Sometimes the resulting composite image is photographed so that a final image may appear as a seamless photographic print.

Compositing

A similar method, although one that does not use film, is realized today through image-editing software.

This technique is referred to by professionals as "compositing", and in casual usage is often called "photoshopping", due to a particular software often used.

A single scene is not a montage

A composite of related photographs to extend a view of a single scene or subject would not be labeled as a montage.
