Would a red filter to darken the sky have helped?
I don't know if you had any interesting cloud
formations but use of various coloured filters to
shift the contrast ratios between elements is often
usefull.
As an aside, I am a big sucker for clouds. My teen
age daughter is also a photographer, and a couple of
years ago we did a photo trip to the southwest. Each
day I would set the alarm clock for a bit before
sunrise, and would check what the clouds looked like,
the deal that we had struck was that if there were
'good clouds' then we would get up and go out and
shoot at sunrise, if the sky was flat, then we would
sleep in. My daughter who normally would sleep in got
really into it, and ended up getting really
enthusiatic about some of the clouds in the mornings!
I often select a filter to bring contrast between the
clouds and the sky.

I interpreted this as B&W negatives, however, for color
negatives printed in B&W the color filters used on a camera
will have exactly the same effect in printing, i.e. a red
filter will bring up the sky. I don't thin there is any
panchromatic paper on the market any more, does anyone know
for certain?
