how do i select the whole sky between trees and leaves???



Hi everyone!

How do i select the white sky in this photo without selecting any of the tree or leaves? I know it can be done with the "selecting tool" but it takes forever to do every little but of sky.

There has to be an easier way?

If it helps I have photoshop 7.0 & CS3.

I would like to use a brush tool and put some blue sky between it...

Thanks in advance!

Use the magic wand tool and UNCHECK "contiguous"

it will select all pixels of that color. Do it in CS3, and if any other pixels of a similar color get picked up get rid of them quickly using the quick selection tool (the one with the minus sign next to it at the top).
