Got a few shots of a couple of owlets high in a tree. Each one the sky is blown out. Really sunny and owls were in a dark spot. Can the sky be fixed?
You caught an ultra-charming shot, not just the stars of the show, but all that hanging moss (?) and the textured tree limb. You can do a few simple edits to enhance what is already there, but since there's hardly any sky showing, IMO this photo needs no blue to "improve" it.
Having said that, I'll keep watch to see if anyone can successfully tackle the challenge
Thank you for that. I thought the sky was distracting.

The sky does not need to distract from the very excellent shot. I used some contrasting, and a bit of color enhancement to bring your shot up to this point. As I am just using an iPad, I only wanted to show you what’s possible. I am sure some of the others can show you how to use a real program to change your photo.
Try sliding the highlight slider to the left
This one is a WINNER in my book.......Put Them on the WALL and take more of them please.
Nice catch.
Very good capture, Alemorkam.
I just was introduced, via YouTube, to the concept of replacing the sky behind a confused skyline via luminosity masking. Using Luminar 3. No way I could tell how or even repeat the process that I saw demonstrated but at last I'm aware that there is a way and that it involves luminosity masking. I think the presenter was Jim Nix.
Perhaps you can find the tutorial on the internet
Good luck!
Love the owls -- I'm sure you can tone down the brightness in the sky! Start playing!
