i like the first one too sheila!
to place a reflection of the clouds in the water i would..
take the cloud image, flip it, layer it over the your 2nd image
at partial opacity so you can see through it, select the water area,
invert, delete the unwanted area, & blend the edges with the eraser, removing it from over the tower..
try some of the blending modes.. like lighten, darken, multiply, overlay, etc..
see which one looks the most realistic & set the opacity to the right level,
which i would assume would be pretty light crossed with modesty but i see she verifies the one way i described..
