Tutorial goal:
In this very easy to learn tutorial, I'm going to show you how to use clipping mask to adjust an image against another one. In this example I have used a mirror, but you can use anything, such as the top of a table, etc...

step 1
Source 1 and Source 2 that will be used at that work

step 2
Select the inner part of the mirror - you can use to select:
magic wand / quick selection tool (CS3) / Lasso / Pen tool as path....

step 3
CTRL + J to copy the selection to another layer
step 4
Drag the source 2 against the mirror. Do not matter with the size now

step 5
Now adjust the size of the layer 2 using CTRL + T (after Ctrl+0 if the image is to large) or transform...
OBSERVATION: You can use CTRL + T or transform after used clipping mask(next step), with exactly the same result
