Mystic Reflection

(Using PSE5)

Open photo.
Duplicate photo. (Ctrl J)
Photo can be cropped for a more close-up finish.
Add light coming in from the area you want.
Go to Filter>Render>Lighting effects.
Select a Light type & size. Choose Omni or spotlight & adjust size.
Make a reflection of background copy photo. (Create your own reflection) or
I made reflection using the FLOOD filter from Flamingpears.com. (Very easy)
If Flood filter is installed,
Go to Filter>Flamingpear>Flood. Create reflection.
After creating the reflection layer, click on B&W circle to left of trashcan and
make an adjustment layer. Go down to Solid color, & use black as color.
Use soft brush, lower opacity to around 10% & brush the area you want to show through.
Raise opacity as you go if you want more to show through.
When it is how you like it,
Create a new layer above Adjustment layer.
Make the foreground color white.
Click brush tool & use grungy or foggy type brush.
Set opacity about 30-50%, & enlarge brush the size to cover area you want.
Highlight Layer copy & Stamp brush 1 time across the part showing through.
It will make it look foggy or misty.
Add Inner Glow to the foggy layer & set size & opacity of glow.
