Hobby & blue sky
With the arrival of warmer weather, and blue skies, I went back to try the hobbys again, only to find them flying high in the sky and way out of range. I therefore went back to the best of my hobby pictures and tried adding different skies in. Plain blue skies looked false, but this background from Gigrin did not look too bad to me.

What do others think? Does it look natural, or is something glaringly wrong?

Incidentally, I have no idea why one foot is clenched and the other not. They were both open in subsequent shots.
