Always in the mood to learn something new, while not wanting the end result to to be like anyone else's, I decided to experiment. Photoshop's new Sky Replacement tool has a number of nice sky presets. But when I use them, I'm using elements I didn't create, and that anyone else can use, which is never my first choice. So, I figured out how to insert another image into one of the Sky Replacement layers to create something that is all original.

2. That same shot with one of the Photoshop sky replacements.
3. A photo of mold growing on one of my lemons.
4. The original photo with a close up of lemon mold replacing the Photoshop sky. Looks like the fire sky we experienced for too long this past summer!
