How to replace a sky so it actually looks GOOD
How to replace a sky so it actually looks GOOD
Photoshop is great at some things…
And very BAD at others.
One thing it’s the absolute worst at is replacing skies with its own “Sky Replacement” tool.
It’s barely better than just doing a basic copy/paste of a sky from one image to another and calling it a day.
I’ll let the results speak for themselves below (and then I’ll show you what it looks like when done PROPERLY).

List of things Photoshop didn’t do, and are the main reasons it looks awful:
- Blend the horizon properly so it doesn’t look like it just pasted a sky into the photo
- Match the brightness in the sky with the brightness in the mid/foreground (the sky doesn’t appear to influence the lightness of the rest of the shot at all)
- Cast the colours from the sky across the rest of the scene (you have to imagine the clouds being like coloured lightbulbs and paint those colours into the rest of the scene accordingly)
- Mask the lifeguard tower accurately (the antenna is partially transparent, although you may not tell in this small jpeg)
- Make the sun affect the new foreground like how it would if it were really there
