It's always cool to know why you are doing something and exactly what you are doing = solid foundations..etc, etc. Thanks for the Action, which can also serve as a great practice tool, to see if you can replicate the effect/s by yourself in Ps. Given me a nice boost mentally as well, great stuff!...Thanks Blake!....Oh, by the way, the perspective correction and fine-tuning were new to me and now looking forward to a few practice edits.

Hi Blake. This is an astonishgly good tutorial and thank you very much for the free action which I know I will use, but I only ever use my own skies. I bought Luminar when it first came out and upgraded (re-purchased it) up to Luminar 4. I used it for the occasional sky replacement and nothing else. I never purchased the AI version because Photoshop added sky replacement and the Luminar AI version was poorly reviewed. But the latest version seems to have better reviews and I was thinking of purchasing it - just for sky replacements. Now I won't have to, so many thanks.

Many, many thanks for another brilliant video tutorial and the Action. Stay Safe ... 😷👍 🍺🐁🍺

Thanks for the Action and skies. I noticed that in order to reposition the reflected sky I have to first turn off the upper sky group 'eye ball' first. Any idea why? Also if the sky I am replacing already had a lot of puffy white clouds before the replacement, the replacement sky allows some of the clouds to show through. Is this because your action used a 62 opacity value?
@f64Academy

Yes, typically this is for images with no sky at all. In that case set the opacity to 100 and add contrast to the reflection instead.
