hello
I WAS WONDERING IF ANYONE COULD TELL ME HOW TO CREATE A MIRROR IMAGE PHOTO. I HAVE A PIC OF MY DAUGHTER LOOKING AT THE LAKE AND I WOULD LIKE TO PUT HER REFLECTION ON THE LAKE. I HAVE ELEMENTS 6. CAN THIS BE DONE IN ELEMENTS? THANKS IN ADVANCE :rolleyes:

Yes, it can be done in elements. Select your daugther and hit contol+J to put her on her own layer. Go to image> rotate and scroll down to rotate layer vertically. Then do a horizontal rotate to get your mirror image. Use the move tool to position and play with layer blend modes and opacity to get the effect you like.
