I designed a book. I am making a showcase window for this book in my blog for it. I want to give page curling effect to its spread in Photoshop as shown in these reference images.

How can I do it?

    This has been done using gradients and using guides and selections.The curvy effect is achieved by using a linear gradient `s angle set on a perfect 90 degree angle.Check this out to get a similar effect.

    Thanks for giving a similar example. I am unable to figure out the technique for white curls effect. I gave one but it looks untidy.  The soft light gives a slow gradient on either of my photographs on the left and right but the curl effect is not coming as realistic. I have added a small black thin rectangle in the centre but the effect is not looking as close to the posted sample. Please give suggestions.

    For that centre fold, try setting up a custom gradient as below

    Add it to a new layer and set blending mode to multiply
