I agree with your comments, and can understand why you would think that. I have struggled with that portion. The grey sky area was due to a hell of a storm rolling in on me, and I shot it and "got out of Dodge." I tried to crop it out, but due to the angle I felt I'd just leave it alone. I may try to PS it out and see what becomes of it. Thanks for your comments.

Here's an attempt at correcting the sky by desaturating that area only

My favorite color on earth - barn red. And this is the real thing!! I think I might like to see it from a bit of a distance but I do appreciate the detail of the boards and the brush growing up.
