Demonstrating concept of fill in and Ambient light

I did notice the very brief change in the background. It does become slightly darker. However it is barely noticeable and might have to do with my flash who seemed to not work very well under the ettl.

Part B : Removing Noise

Okay so I tested this technique twice. Personally i am not a big fan of it with people. a slight movement can cause the whole process not to work even when aligning the layers.

Part A : Removing People

 In my first attempt, based on 20 images, I noticed some ghosting at the lights. We barely see the people but there is some kind of outline there. So I found that this was a failure. I tried again with another series.

In this series I only used 9 images and found it quite successful. however, I can see some outline of the other image in the grey building part above pharmaprix. I'm curious if this corner was too busy in the first place.
