I have to ask, did you photoshop these pics? I've never seen the sky in Beijing look so blue! These are amazing, as always...

A HDR (High Dynamic Range) photo is a technique in which you can combine 3 different exposures from RAW photos and combine them, so you can see all areas of the photos at an optimal exposure. It definitely gives it a surreal or arty look.
Having said that, the sky was actually very blue in Tianjin where I took two of the photos. you can compare the original unaltered photos here to compare:
