HDR + DECLUTTER Tips
Transform overcast skies into stunning blue canvases.
When to Use HDR + DECLUTTER
Overcast, grey, or washed-out skies can make even beautiful properties look dull. Sky replacement adds a natural blue sky with realistic clouds.
How It Works
Lumistate's AI detects the sky region, masks it precisely — even around trees and rooflines — and blends a photorealistic sky that matches the lighting conditions of your photo.
Tips for Best Results
- Works best on exterior shots with a clear sky-to-building boundary
- The AI adjusts sky colour temperature to match the scene's lighting
- Avoid heavily cropped images where very little sky is visible
Compliance Note
Sky-replaced images are automatically flagged in metadata for MLS compliance. The original sky is preserved in the before/after comparison.
