"Hiked 6 miles to this overlook and the clouds rolled in. Grey, flat, disappointing. Replaced the sky with the golden hour I imagined and it's now my best seller on my print shop. The treeline edges are flawless." @WildernessLens_CO

Built for Landscape Photographers

Overcast grey skies ruin otherwise perfect compositions
Power lines and utility poles cut through scenic views
Tourists and hikers appear in long exposure shots
Camera sensors don't capture colors the way your eyes saw them
Harsh midday lighting flattens dramatic terrain
Lens flare and haze obscure distant mountains

You can't control weather, crowds, or the sun. But you can fix what they ruined. EditThisPic understands landscape photography - it handles complex treelines, horizon transitions, and natural color grading. Describe what should have been there, and the AI creates it with realistic blending.

Step-by-Step Guide

1

Upload your landscape photo

Drop your landscape image into EditThisPic. JPG, PNG, WebP up to 7MB. Works with mountain scenes, seascapes, forests, deserts, and cityscapes. Raw exports, processed files, or straight from camera - any source works.

Sky replacement: 25-35 seconds. Complex treeline edges may need one refinement pass.
2

Describe your edit in plain English

Type what you need: 'replace the overcast sky with dramatic sunset clouds' or 'remove the power lines crossing the valley.' Be specific about the sky type or mood you want. The AI understands landscape terms - golden hour, blue hour, storm clouds, milky way.

Include lighting direction: 'sunset sky with light coming from the left' ensures the new sky matches your scene's lighting.
3

Review and download

Check the horizon line and treeline transitions. Verify the sky lighting matches the landscape lighting direction. Look for any halos around trees or buildings. Download your print-ready landscape.

Refine complex edges if needed

Complex treelines, intricate rock formations, or silhouetted subjects may need a refinement pass. Tap markers on specific problem edges and regenerate. Most landscape replacements work on the first try.

For complex tree edges, try: 'blend the sky naturally through the tree branches, handle fine details.'

Copy-Paste Prompts for Landscape Photos

Grey overcast day
replace the grey overcast sky with a vibrant sunset sky featuring orange, pink, and purple clouds, adjust landscape lighting to match golden hour

'Adjust landscape lighting to match' ensures the foreground colors complement the new sky

Power lines ruining the view
remove all power lines, utility poles, and electrical wires from the entire scene, fill with clean sky and natural background

'Entire scene' ensures the AI catches wires at frame edges that are easy to miss

Colors look flat and dull
enhance the natural colors to be more vibrant and dramatic like the scene appeared in person, boost contrast slightly

'Like the scene appeared in person' keeps enhancement natural rather than over-processed

Tourists in the shot
remove all the people from the landscape, fill the areas naturally with the surrounding terrain and vegetation

Works for hikers, photographers with tripods, or crowds at popular viewpoints

Show 4 more prompts
Hazy mountain view
remove the atmospheric haze from the distant mountains, make the peaks clear and defined while keeping the scene natural

'While keeping natural' prevents the dehaze from looking artificial or over-sharpened

Blue sky but boring
add dramatic white clouds to the blue sky, vary the cloud sizes for visual interest, keep the lighting consistent

Adding clouds to empty blue skies is easier than full sky replacement

Midday harsh lighting
soften the harsh shadows and balance the exposure, make the lighting look like late afternoon golden hour

Golden hour look can be applied to any time of day with the right prompt

Need more dramatic sky
replace the sky with dramatic storm clouds, dark and moody with rays of light breaking through, adjust scene to match the dramatic mood

Storm skies work great for rugged mountain and coastal scenes

Edit Type Prompt Time
Replace grey sky replace grey sky with sunset, match lighting 30s
Remove power lines remove all power lines and poles 25s
Enhance colors enhance colors naturally and vibrantly 20s
Remove tourists remove people, fill with natural terrain 30s

Real Examples

After

Grey sky to dramatic sunset

A mountain landscape shot on an overcast day. Sky replaced with vibrant sunset and scene lighting adjusted to match.

Prompt: replace the grey sky with a dramatic sunset featuring orange and pink clouds, adjust the landscape lighting to match golden hour
Scenic valley with power lines crossing the frame
Before
->
Same valley with clean unobstructed view
After

Power lines removed from valley

A beautiful valley view with power lines cutting across. All wires and poles removed for clean composition.

Prompt: remove all power lines and utility poles from the scene, fill with clean sky
Forest in autumn with muted dull colors
Before
->
Same forest with vibrant orange and red fall colors
After

Color enhancement for forest scene

An autumn forest with muted colors. Enhanced to show the vibrant fall foliage as it appeared in person.

Prompt: enhance the natural colors to show vibrant fall foliage, make the oranges and reds pop while keeping the image natural

When Things Go Wrong

Sky replacement has visible halos around trees

Why: Complex tree branches with many small gaps are challenging for automatic edge detection.

Try: Tap markers on problem tree edges, then: blend the sky naturally through the tree branches, no visible halos or edges

Deciduous trees with leaves are easier than bare winter branches. Adjust expectations accordingly.

New sky lighting doesn't match landscape

Why: The AI may not automatically adjust the scene lighting to match the new sky's light direction.

Try: adjust the landscape lighting to match the sunset sky, warm tones on surfaces facing the light

Always mention lighting direction in your original sky replacement prompt for better first results.

Removed area shows repeating patterns

Why: Large removed objects require the AI to generate significant background content, which can sometimes show patterns.

Try: regenerate the filled area with varied natural texture, no repeating patterns

Tap a marker on the problematic area before regenerating to focus the AI's attention there.

Colors look over-saturated after enhancement

Why: The AI may interpret 'vibrant' too aggressively for already colorful scenes.

Try: enhance colors subtly, keep the scene looking natural and realistic, not over-processed

For landscapes, 'natural' and 'realistic' are important words to include in enhancement prompts.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is sky replacement considered ethical in landscape photography?

This depends on the context. For personal enjoyment and artistic expression, it's widely accepted. For photo contests or documentation, rules vary - many competitions prohibit composite images. For commercial prints sold as 'landscape photography,' disclosure is considered ethical practice. EditThisPic is a creative tool; how you use and represent your work is your choice.

How realistic are the sky replacements?

Very realistic when you match lighting direction and time of day. The AI is trained on millions of landscape photos and understands how skies interact with terrain. Best results come from matching the new sky's lighting to your scene's natural light direction. 'Sunset with light from the left' tells the AI exactly what to generate.

Can it handle complex treelines and fine details?

Yes, the AI is specifically trained on challenging edges like trees against sky. It handles leaves, branches, and irregular silhouettes. Very fine details like bare winter branches may need a refinement pass with markers, but most treelines process cleanly on the first attempt.

Will it work with RAW files?

EditThisPic accepts JPEG, PNG, and WebP files. Export your RAW files to one of these formats first. You can do basic RAW processing in your preferred software and then use EditThisPic for sky replacement, object removal, or enhancement.

Can I add a starry night sky to a daylight photo?

Technically possible but results vary. The AI would need to adjust the entire scene to look like night, not just the sky. For best results, shoot at actual blue hour or night, then enhance or clean up. Day-to-night conversions are complex edits that may need multiple iterations.

Does it preserve metadata for location tagging?

EditThisPic focuses on visual editing. EXIF metadata handling depends on your browser and download settings. For critical archival use, we recommend saving metadata separately or re-embedding it after editing.
