The 5D also produces pretty intense blue skies, even in RAW. And the skies were already an intense blue that day so that helped. Oh, almost forgot! I use the flash sparingly, mostly because I don't know what I'm doing lol. I used flash exposure compensation here- I think it was -2/3 (?). This helps bring up the shadows in the dog but keeps the sky from getting blown out. I generally only use flash for the blue sky shots taken under the dog, on really bright sunny days when the shadows are very dark, and indoors. The rest are natural light. Still experimenting with flash and have a ways to go yet but I love to learn! @ emilee- the blue skies are a combination of bumped up contrast + a bit of vignetting + saving for web- this last bit always seems to intensify the saturation for me.
