5: Drag the home layer above the background layer. Create a new layer by pressing Ctrl+ Shift+ N and rename it Shadow. Press B to select Brush, its size must be 50 pixels, 50% Opacity and 50% flow. With Black color selected draw on the layer to Remove the down sides of the home image to look natural.
