It's a small image so I can't see it very well... But from what I can see:
Lighting is always important and it should always match the existing scene. In this case the Space Needle is lighted from the right side. Now look at the people, all three people are lit differently, so it's just not going to look realistic. If they were lighted the same there would also be shadows that would match the direction of the light.

Hey there,
I'm also practicing a lot with cutting out. Try to give the people on the pic a shadow on the ground. Just lightly. To my expirience it will never feel real without just a bit of shadow or interaction with the original image. Correct me if i'm wrong.
Also what hawkeye explains makes sense. It bugs when you want a certain character in a certain scene. The lighting will hardly ever match instantly. I'm not skilled enough to adjust that.

try mastering the pen tool for extractions its a great tool for that. also feather your selections and try to eliminate the white areas around them better, the pen tool is great once you get the hang of it
