Re: Help Please with these skies
None of those things! That's how a deep blue sky really looks, although you tend to notice it more in photos. The sky lightens towards the horizon, and some people go to a great deal of trouble with graduated overlay layers to fake the effect!
 P.S. A superwide lens will show the effect more, simply because there's more 'height' of sky in the shot. |

Re: Help Please with these skies
Don't alter it, Ray - it looks fine!
 We tend to look at only one part of the sky at a time, so we don't notice the gradation, but it's really there. A uniform blue sky isn't realistic.  A polariser may exaggerate the effect, and can look overdone, but yours is OK. |

Re: Help Please with these skies
Hey, I spend ages in Photoshop trying to get that graduation added
 Do me a favour & convert that to Mono using channel mixers at 100% red ..... that sky will be a lovely dark black |
