Title: Help/advice on a photo re-touch

In Photoshop or PhotoPAINT, what's the best easiest way to touch up the blue slice of sky in this pic?
I'm thinking of a paintbrush using a tint(partial opacity) of the green color obtained with the eyedropper. Is this the way that you would do it as well?

Glad to see he made it over Andy.

Any idea what bridge that is?

And Steve and Tom, thanks, I'll look into clipping a piece of the bridge. I had thought about the rubber stamp, but can't line that up accurately.

Robert, that's what I kept thinking, mainly due to the background, guess my age
(or lack of) is showing. So is that the Key Systems tracks on the bottom deck?
