Then I pasted this picture (Blue Mosque, istambul, Turkey) and flipped it horizontally

At this point I decided I wanted to change the background so I pasted one of my pictures. I flipped it too and now the sunlight comes from the upper right corner and fits the shadows on the mosgue layer.

Finally, i adjusted all the colors using Brightness/Contrast and Selective color tools mainly! I put just a touch of mist in front of Manhattan skyscrapers and masked the sea. Removed unnecessary parts of the Blue Mosque layer and removed the old shadow of the Statue on the sea. now that the sunlight is coming from a different corner there was no need to replace it with a mosque shadow any more.
