Using images IMG_1465.JPG, IMG_1678.JPG and blue-sky.kpg:

NOTE: I did not use IMG_1678.JPG   


Final Image Submission:

This technique is awesome! Handy and very clever because you can take for example a boring, dull window reflection and create one which is vibrant or quirky! (for example if I had used the apples and when do you ever see apples reflecting in the window of a 4-5 stories high building?)
