Get a camera and look up.

Or look on the many stock photography sites available on the web. You can probably pick up a CD devoted to different sky backdrops.

(fotosearch.com; photodisc.com; wonderfile.com; hemera.com; corbis.com)

Or make your own with the render | clouds filter. Make blue the foreground
and white the background. After you make the clouds, you can hit Ctrl+F to
change the amount and disposition of the clouds on the blue sky.

Pay attention to the Weather Channel, Bill. The most dramatic skies happen when fronts are moving through your area.

Here's one (of a series of 10) I took <http://mywebpages.comcast.net/phosphor/Outlink/FebSky.jpg> on a severely cold and windy February evening last year. We had sleet that night and into the next day.

If you have a digital camera, the easiest way is just to take sky
pictures every time you see something of interest. Of course that goes
for other things you can use as backgrounds as well. I tend to keep a
collection of lawns, landscaping essentials, flower beds, rose bushes
and trees. They have come in handy a number of times. My photoshop
class, actually used them to landscape a house during their course. They
found it a pretty interesting lesson.
