I'm investigating the SkySwap AI in the latest ON1 and I must admit, I'm liking the overall program more and more. One thing that I've noticed that I *don't* like is that ON1 "forgets" your history of edits after you've moved on to another photo and come back again. Or at least I can't find how to review the edits I made earlier. Since I'm posting "before and after" shots, I've found that once I export the "after" image and revert to the original, I don't have the edits to restore the edits once I've exported the "before." As I get better at this, I suspect I can export the "before" before I make any edits into an "after." Still...
That said, there are an awful lot of skies available both through ON1 and third-party sources. One can even add their own, as long as it's a JPEG image.
Here's another shot I've been playing with. Please realize that I'm only going for aesthetics and not accuracy. I'm sure it will take me a lot more twiddling and fiddling before I turn out photos that I'd be proud to put on exhibit.

Isn't the light source in the replacement coming from wrong direction? I can't always tell with clouds

The light source in the original is to the right of the photo. I don't detect a source direction in the clouds.
On1 has come a long way with its sky replacement tool. Nice job.
Thanks. I'm beginning to learn a few things and will be adjusting my workflow a bit. It seems that when one replaces the sky, all the previous adjustment settings are lost, and so they must be applied all over again. So, process #1 is now, "select sky, then process."
Looks better to me, Fred.

Yes. Original is from the right and sky is from left.
