I set the f-stop to f/5.6 for a large depth of field and kept the sun off my right shoulder so I would not be shooting into the sun. I metered off the sky, set the shutter speed to 1/640 and then recomposed the shot.

Don't Blow it!
My goal for this photo was to properly expose the sky. It was 2:00pm and sunny. In these conditions I have noticed, when shooting a landscape, that I tend to overexposed the sky and blow out any detail.
I set the f-stop to f/5.6 for a large depth of field and kept the sun off my right shoulder so I would not be shooting into the sun. I metered off the sky, set the shutter speed to 1/640 and then recomposed the shot.
