Tip: Using Blending modes while compositing

Every designer knows that there are no fixed set of instructions to follow when it comes to compositing. I was working on a compositing project last night and found out an easy way to make your compositing seems more realistic.Depending on the scene you are working on, you can play with the layer blending mode to find a good match and then work on it to make it look like the element is actually on the background plate.In the eg. shown below,I duplicated the hole layer,changed the blending mode to overlay and brought down the opacity of the duplicate layer.It seems really effective.Give it a try,Might come handy :)
