Adding a sky layer in Photoshop is a great way to make your photos pop!

There are a few different ways to add a sky layer in Photoshop, but we'll be focusing on the two most popular methods: using the gradient tool, and using a sky image.

Using the gradient tool:

1. Create a new layer above your background layer.

2.Select the gradient tool from the toolbar (it looks like a little black and white box).

3. In the gradient tool options bar, select the "Linear" gradient type.

4. Drag the gradient tool from the top of your image to the bottom.

You can experiment with different colors and opacity levels to get the perfect sky for your photo!

Using a sky image:

1. Find an awesome sky image that you want to use (try doing a Google search for "free sky images").

2. Drag and drop the image into your Photoshop project.

TIP:"Resize" your image by pressing Ctrl+T (Windows) or Cmd+T (Mac), and then holding down the Shift key while you drag one of the corner handles inward.


This will keep your image from getting distorted as you resize it.

3. Change the blending mode of your sky layer to "Screen".
4. Voila! You should now have a beautiful new sky in your photo.
