Hi, is there any way I can get the sky from the first picture to replace the sky in the second picture?

Thanks..

yes, but some idea of what editing software you use might help with the advice on the best way to do it.


edit: to get them to show as pics here, click on 'all sizes' tab on the flick image page, when the image opens, use the medium size [your large is too big for forum] then select image url from underneath [url, not the embed code] an paste that between

tags

Hi, I've got Photoshop CS4...

in that case, the easiest way for that particular shot, is to drag one on top of the other, reduce the opacity so you can see 'thought it' and line them up properly, then erase the bits you dont want. when going round the edge of the skylight, reduce the hardeness and opacity of the eraser by a few percent, it will give a slightly more believable softer edge.

Is this the 'Oculus' in the Pantheon in Rome b'chance?

Place sky on a layer above the background and then ad a Colour range mask and this is what I got,
but I think sky is too strong so take the opacity back to 83% to look more natural

with 83% sky
