How do you guys get the right perspective views when using stock photos?

[chundertunt]

So I'm starting to do matte work and Im finding it very frustrating to find photos that have the right perspective views. Example: Im working on a floating island with a building on top of course since its floating I need a view looking slightly up. But cant for the life of me find any stock photos with that perspective, this isnt the first time I've felt like giving up due to what seems to be simple solutions.


I've been able to download stock 3d buildings and from that adjust the camera angle to get the right view but then its a matter of rendering it to look as realistic as the island its self. Which is not possible.


Looking for tips/tricks, please.


Here is the example to get a better idea:
