How it works

  1. Upload your property exterior

    Drop your listing photo into EditThisPic. Best results come from exterior shots where the sky area is clearly visible, even if completely gray. JPG, PNG, WebP up to 7MB.

    Expect: Simple sky swap: 20-25 seconds. Properties with many trees: may need 1-2 refinements for clean edges.
  2. Describe the blue sky you want

    Type your instruction: 'replace the gray sky with clear blue sky and white clouds' or 'change the overcast sky to a bright sunny day.' No masking or selecting needed - the AI knows what sky means and handles the replacement automatically.

    Tip: Add 'scattered white clouds' for realism. Pure cloudless blue skies can look artificial in listing photos.

    Copy one of these to get started:

    Clear blue sky with white clouds replace the gray overcast sky with clear blue sky and scattered white fluffy clouds, keep the property lighting natural
    Dramatic scattered clouds replace the dull sky with bright blue sky and dramatic white cumulus clouds, maintain natural shadows on the house
    Perfect listing day sky change the overcast sky to a perfect sunny day with light blue sky and a few wispy white clouds, make it look inviting
    Sunset glow sky replace the gray sky with a warm golden sunset sky with orange and pink tones, add warm light reflecting on the house
    3 more prompts
    Bright midday blue change the cloudy sky to vivid midday blue with small white clouds, bright and cheerful for a listing photo
    Soft evening sky replace the sky with a soft pastel evening sky in light blue and lavender tones, gentle and peaceful mood
    Clear sky with contrails replace the overcast sky with deep blue sky and one or two faint airplane contrails for added depth and realism
  3. Review the result

    Check that the new blue sky looks natural with the property. Verify rooflines and tree edges blend cleanly with the new sky. The lighting on the house should feel consistent.

  4. Refine edges if needed

    If tree branches have halos or the roofline has a visible seam, tap markers on those areas and regenerate. Most sky swaps work cleanly on the first try.

    Tip: For properties with lots of trees, add 'blend tree edges naturally' to your prompt.

"Listed a property during a week of rain. Every exterior shot had gray skies. Swapped them all to blue in 10 minutes. Client loved the photos and we got three showings that weekend." @RealtorJenNY

Detailed Guides by Scenario

📷

Listing Photo Sky Fix

Transform overcast listing photos into sunny, inviting exteriors that attract more buyer clicks on MLS and Zillow.

Common Scenarios

  • Fixing gray sky exterior shots before uploading to MLS, Zillow, or Realtor.com
  • Batch-processing multiple listing photos from a rainy shoot day to consistent blue skies
  • Refreshing older listing photos that have dull skies to re-energize a stale listing

Best Practices

  • Use the same sky style across all exterior photos for a cohesive listing presentation
  • Add 'keep the property lighting natural' to ensure the house matches the new sky
  • Process sky replacement before other edits like color enhancement for the cleanest result
📷

Weather Rescue

Save photoshoots from bad weather without rescheduling. Turn rainy, cloudy, or flat gray days into perfect listing weather.

Common Scenarios

  • Rescuing a full exterior shoot done on an overcast day before a deadline
  • Fixing photos from a winter shoot where bare trees and gray skies dominate
  • Transforming rainy-day shots that can't be reshot due to scheduling conflicts

Best Practices

  • Even heavy overcast photos can be transformed - don't delete cloudy shots
  • Mention 'match the scene lighting' to ensure shadows still make sense with the new sky
  • For winter shots, consider a light blue sky with thin clouds rather than full summer blue
📷

Premium Sky Options

Go beyond basic blue with sunset, golden hour, and dramatic cloud skies for luxury and high-end property listings.

Common Scenarios

  • Creating twilight exterior shots for luxury listings without an evening photoshoot
  • Adding dramatic sunset skies to make a high-end property stand out in search results
  • Generating golden hour warmth on a property facade to evoke emotional buyer response

Best Practices

  • Sunset and golden hour skies work best on properties facing west or with interesting facades
  • Always add 'warm light on the house' when using sunset skies for consistent lighting
  • Dramatic skies are impactful for hero images but use classic blue for secondary photos

If something looks off

Tree branches have visible halos or cutout artifacts

Why: Fine branches against sky are difficult to separate. The AI may leave bright or dark edges around complex tree shapes.

Try: Tap markers on the tree edges, then: blend tree branches naturally with the new blue sky, remove any halos

Tip: Properties with clean rooflines and fewer trees give the cleanest sky replacements on the first try.

The blue sky looks pasted in or fake

Why: The sky brightness or color temperature doesn't match the existing lighting on the property.

Try: replace the sky with a natural-looking blue sky that matches the scene lighting, blend the horizon smoothly

Tip: Adding 'match the scene lighting' helps the AI create a sky that integrates naturally with the property.

Horizon line has a visible seam between house and sky

Why: The transition between the old and new sky wasn't blended smoothly at the roofline.

Try: Tap markers along the horizon, then: blend the roofline and sky seamlessly with no visible transition line

Tip: Clean architectural rooflines blend better than irregular natural horizons like hills or tree lines.

AI changed the wrong area or something I didn't want changed

Why: The AI couldn't determine exactly which area you meant from description alone. This happens with ambiguous requests.

Try: Tap a marker on the specific area you want to change, then regenerate with the same prompt

Tip: Markers tell the AI 'I mean THIS one specifically.' Use them when description alone is ambiguous.

Quick answers

Do I need to mark or select the sky before replacing it?

No! Just type 'replace the gray sky with blue sky and clouds.' The AI knows exactly what sky means and handles the selection automatically. Only use markers if you need to refine tree edges or roofline transitions after the first attempt.

How do I replace a gray sky with blue in my listing photos without Photoshop?

Upload your property exterior to EditThisPic and type 'replace the gray sky with clear blue sky and white clouds.' The AI swaps the overcast sky with bright blue in 20-30 seconds. No masking, no layers, no Photoshop skills needed.

Is there a free blue sky replacement tool for real estate photos?

Yes. EditThisPic replaces gray skies in property photos free with no account required. Upload your listing photo, describe the blue sky you want, and download the result. No watermarks on the free tier.

What type of blue sky looks most realistic for property listings?

Blue sky with scattered white clouds looks most natural. Pure cloudless blue can appear artificial. For most listings, a bright blue with a few fluffy white clouds creates the ideal sunny-day feel buyers respond to.

Can I use sky-replaced photos on MLS and Zillow?

Generally yes. Sky replacement is widely accepted in real estate marketing since the property itself remains unaltered. Check your local MLS rules and real estate board guidelines, as some have specific policies about photo editing disclosure.

Is EditThisPic's blue sky replacement really free?
