Here is a before and after of a recovery project that I was playing with a few mins ago. The photo was taken on a dreary overcast day and I really liked the composition so I figured I would give it a whirl. 1st step was selective sky replacement, 2nd was bumping the saturation and color correcting, 3rd was distortion correction. Took about 20 mins but I had never tried this technique before. Whatcha think?

My biggest problem seems to be that the sky in my pics look like the one in your before picture and not the blue that my eye sees. I think the changes were subtle but overall make a better picture.

very cool. I have a photo of the tree of life, that I exposed for the foreground, blew the sky, and I have tried to fix it to no avail.
Great Job Tim!

levels, channels, selections, layers, hue & sat., and a few others
 
Tim, looks like you missed a little bit of the sky there in the Norway shot. Around 2 o'clock. Otherwise, both great!

Another Canadian Pavillion Recovery

Tweaked the workflow a bit with this one... i really like it and it's taking a LOT less time than the first attempt.

so post up the workflow, with some guideline amounts for the tweaks, so we disciples of TIM can learn from the master
 
i will try to post a workflow that makes sense sometime in the next few days.
