In this tutorial, I demonstrate how to isolate and edit the sky section of a scene leaving the rest of the image unedited.

As I prefer and am better skilled in Lightroom, for years I've made a duplicate then processed one image for the sky and one for everything else. I use a combination of global and local filters, processing each image with complete disregard for how the processing affects the rest of the image. After finishing the two, I open them as Photoshop layers and blend them. I admit I don't do this often anymore, not since Lightroom's addition of masks, but it is a good technique, a simple technique, that offers good results. But now I have another way to adjust the sky, and as my Photoshop skills are improving, I'll give this a try. Thanks, Anthony, for another useful video. And nice job on recovering the statue sky.
Another good video Anthony. I have a dilemma, hoping you can offer suggestions or even do a video on it. I recently shot an Air Show (UK). When Shooting old propeller driven aircraft, as you probably know, they need a slow shutter speed so the prop is blurred. The sky was mostly grey, which I would like to change. The problem is how do I select aircraft AND blurred prop, so when new sky is imported it shows through the prop blur??? Thanks in anticipation.
Another good video. I've also been using Select Sky to delete the sky and reveal the exposed-for-the-sky sky underneath. Is this ok or is it better to blend my two exposures?
I have a hard one! I need to replace a sky in a photo of Old Faithful! I just need to replace the sky in Photoshop, but NOT replace the white steam cloud of the geyser. How do I do that?
