How to hunt sky
The literal sky is a weak photo because it has no edge — frame it against a roofline, a branch, or a wire so the cell has structure. On the ground, sky blue is a nursery and summer-clothing color, so baby shops and menswear rails are the dependable indoor version.
What sky gets confused with
Plain blue is much more saturated; turquoise has green in it. Sky is the pale, slightly washed-out one — if it looks like blue mixed with a lot of white, you have it.
