Reflection with water ripple and lighting effects in Photoshop

Reflection with water ripple and lighting effects in Photoshop
In this tutorial you will learn how to create water reflection with ripple and lighting effects in Photoshop in 5 simple steps.
BEFORE AFTER
Step 1 : Open an image. Place it somewhere on top and have enough place to but another picture below.
Step 2 : Open the same image again. Rotate picture2 (ctrl+T; free transform) and transform it horizontally (image>rotate canvas>flip canvas horizontally)
Step 3 : Select picture2 and go to Filter on your menu bar> distort >ocean ripple, and press ok.

Step 4 : Now you will have an image that has a water reflection. What we want to do next is to have a light effect that concentrates in the center of the whole image. To do this go to your top menu bar, Filter> Render> Lighting Effects. Under Lighting Effects on Style select Soft Omni>OK.


Step 5 : Do the same for picture 2.
