Context..... was this due to a client wanting more splashes? Was it due to a client wanting you to photoshop 2 completely different things together? is the possiblity of a reshoot there?!?

I'm no expert on it but cutting it out is a bitch... People I know that have done it (splashes e.t.c) tend to touch up the image that the water is in so that there is no water at all, then digitally recreate water and place it in there. They use Realflow to get the water shape and then retouch the refraction underneath it themselves.
This is not necessarily easy or the best way to do it, but most poster design stuff I've seen with effects including water seem to be done this way.
- Depending on the source image, you might be able to just use alpha channels and then warp the highlights/shadows to match another image. Highly subjective though.orrinward
- selection to fit the other image. This is highly subjective though and would require that the water doesn't have any refracted imagery behind it.orrinward
