Default Please, why is sky washed out?

The camera is exposing based on the dark tree in the center of the pic.
In those situations you should either dial in some exposure
compensation ( -1 would be a good starting point) or else simply go
into manual mode and expose manually.

And of course, if you shoot in RAW mode you might be able to recover
most of the blown out highlights.
