Ok, so I took a cool pic of the pyramids in Egypt, but the Egyptian sky was hazy, polluted, and very bright. As a result, the sky is a bit dingy and washed out. I learned how to replace a sky (yeah!) and have replaced the sky in the pic, but I just don't think they look real. Below are the links to 5 attempts at sky replacement. I also have the original pic plus a "base" pic I used for the sky replacement. This base pic has the colors and contract adjusted whereas the original does not.
Any thoughts on how to make the sky replacement more real? Are my clouds too big for the shot? The sky the wrong blue to go with a pyramid shot on a hazy bright day? Too much sand in the pic and I should remove the little bit of city in the bottom right (that's what my wife said)? Thanks!
