Default Sky Images For Downloading

I would like to have a collection of skies - nothing dramatic -
blue/blue plus clouds and will be grateful if anyone can point me
towards suitable websites.

I am editing a collection of photos, some of which need skies added:
unfortunately, the UK in February is not the ideal location to just go
out and shoot some skies for summery photos!

Google is your friend:
http://images.google.com/images?q=cloud+sky

http://www.carlwozniak.com/clouds/CloudPix.html
http://www.chaseday.com/mesoformation.htm
http://www.crh.noaa.gov/gid/display....lery/index.php
Etc., etc.
You may want to check for copyright issues on those.

Alternatively you can make your own:

And even MS Flight Simulator has nice realistic clouds/sky you can
(screen)capture from any direction. You can even pick the correct
season, foreground, time of day, precipitation, etc., with that one.

Like Bart suggested, I would do a Google image search, on "CLOUD" then
on "SKY". In a case such as yours, I would limit the results by
selecting LARGE sized images, because that will be the only size
suitable enough for images which are printed.
