This still didnt work so I cloned the tops of the trees with the sky above it. Then I did a gardient blue layer to give it the blue sky and a slight vingette for taste.
Thanks for offering to explain it to me again. Here are my biggest questions:
1. I'm still not sure what an hdr version would be, or how you would create one.
2. Why would you create lighter versions? Would that give you more depth on layers or something?

And I can never get the cloning tool in CS3 to do what I want it to.
