We try to shoot a small series of photos of the same sky in case you have a project where you need to do 5-10 sky replacements. With projects like these you need consistency, but also subtle variation. If you just used 1 sky on 10 images it would be obvious the sky has been replaced.
They are in .dng format.
Two main reasons.
1. It saves a bit of disc space.
2. But mainly because there are no side car .xmp files.
All the skies have been lightly processed to ensure the exposure is correct across the image. When the sun is close to the edge of the frame or in the frame, some areas will be over and / or under exposed.
Having the extra .xmp side car file to store the edit information in becomes a bit clunky, increases over all file size and also the risk of the edit date being lost. So .DNG was the optimum choice as all the information is baked into one file.
