So the first picture I'll be using is this one, and you want to pick a picture where a window wouldn't look out of place, so in this it just looks like she's sat in a coffee shop And this is the second picture I'll be using, and this will be the reflection. so for this you want to think about what would be on the other side of the window, so i've picked a street with a tram going past. And in the layers studio, you want your reflection picture to be above / higher up the list of layers the main picture in the layers. So i’ll need to change the blend mode of the reflection, so im clicking on that layer, and going to the three dots, then im clicking here to change the blend mode to ‘screen’ Then I'mi'm going to the ‘adjustment studio’ and I'm adding a ‘levels adjustment’ and I'mi'm dragging that levels adjustment onto the reflection. So when you drag it on top, you will see this blue line going across. Then I'm draggingim dragging the black slider to the left to reduce the shadows, and I'mi'm doing this until I cani can see more of the main photo than I cani can of the reflection. So about 70 percent is good for this picture. Next I need to blur the reflection a little bit because no reflection is that sharp. So i'm going to the filters studio, im clicking here, and i'm clicking on ‘blurs’ and im turning on add live filters. Then im scrolling down to ‘gaussian blur’ and right now, the blur is on top of the levels adjustment but i need it to be on topontop of the reflection picture. So I need to drag the blur and place it on top of the reflection instead. So again you'll see that blue line going across. So it will be underneath and slightly to the right of the reflection picture. And then I'm bringing the radius up to 6 pixels. Next I want to change the opacity of the reflection, so I'm clicking these three dots and I'm bringing the opacity down to 75 percent. There's one last thing i want to add and this is completely optional, so if you're happy with how your picture looks you don't need to do this. But I want to add a bit of a glare to the window. So I'm going to the rectangle tool. I'm changing the colour to white in the colour studio. And ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bQmithwfzyE
