Merging two different images

Question

I merged above two different images. Following image is showing the merged layer. In the mearged layer reflection of the boad is trasperent. That means you can also see the reflection of vegetation as well in the boat reflection. Is this a real world scenario?

Hey, @MahaB82A. Welcome to the Photoshop Community. I'll add my pointers.

The Boat's reflection is of an opaque object, so it should not have any transparency. I guess that you're using a blend mode like Multiply.

You can also mask out just the Boat and exclude the reflection & the water from the boat image. Use the marquee selection tool to draw a rough selection > Use Generative Fill with a prompt to add reflections & shadows in the water to get a contextual result.

Here is a quick example:

Let me know how it goes. Thanks!
