No need to put in an artificial sky, the one you have has plenty of interest. Just need to isolate it and work on it a bit. I used PSE9, isolating the sky using thresholds, adjust color and light, and added a gradient blue-grey layer. See how you like it. Didn't do anything else to the picture.

Very nice...thanks mdeman.

I assume you were asking others to post your photo with their editing attempts, so I will post mine as well.

I used CS5. Isolated you and your son, inverted, worked on sky with selective color (white) then inverted again and increased contrast and brightness on you and your son.

Thank you Wendy.

A friend took this photo of me and my son after one of his games. I like the picture, but I think the sky is blown out. All I have is the free Picasa for PP and I wasn't able to do anything with it.

Here's my take on 3 different pics I played with and added a different sky...less than 10 seconds apiece... here's a link to a video I did on how I do it if you get Elements...
