If you don't want to work with layers in Advanced module, try this:
Use GUIDED EDITS - special edits - replace background.
Select what you want to keep, click choose new background, import a photo.
User cahale (above) has what sounds like an excellent workaround; I couldn't find the folder of PSE skies in a quick search, but you might look into that further.

Thanks very much for that information and your feedback, Kathy.I'm a member of a minimalist group, and I actually struggle to meet their definition of it. I think this would certainly qualify! I do like the softness. I like R.G.'s. There are some nuances in the colours that are interesting.

Thanks so much! I like your original the best. It is a very pleasing example of fine art photography minimalism. I do find it interesting how some people like minimalism and others don’t.
As with any style or genre, there will be thumbs-up and thumbs-down. The one I scratch my head over is when someone says they don't like black and white photos

Did you mean to quote R.G.'s? The second I posted is just a larger file size of the OP.I prefer this one. The subtle change gives it a bit more contrast. The title fits it well.
Thanks very much for viewing and commenting, Frank.

Excellent! Not only a clear sky to show the billowing steam more clearly, but a very interesting profile of building shapes all crowded together...and the crop rows too!!

Delightful creation! Your wife looks like an adventurous, charming lady.
Was this created all within Photoshop?

I'm delighted by your response, Don. Thank you so much!Oh my! I just saw the heading "Silent Scenes."
Embarrassed as I am, this only strengthens my like of the empty swings. You just look at it and wonder, "Where are the children? Where is the laughter, the shouts of glee?"
Playgrounds are noisy, happy places. When they are empty, their silence can be deafening. Your wonderful image has captured this beautifully.

The theme was "Silence," but I liked my slightly embellished title better for this UHH thread
With regards to whether one should - or needs to - include a descriptive title, I think the below (shot in same area for same theme) needs my image title, "Waiting."

I'm grateful for your feedback and reaction. Thanks very much!Your first cut conveys the silence of the playground without kids very well. The color version does not. This darker version seems almost sinister.

Many thanks Bev!You do very creative things with ordinary elements. I like this image, it's earthy colors, and adding the softening touch. I never would have guessed you rotated it. Appreciate listing your workflow. I agree about using a different layer for each filter. Many a time I've had to go back and readjust something.
