You are such a lucky guy. It is a clear air effect.
I used to be accused of using a polarizer with my hiking shots
because people had never seen blue skied unbleached by dust and
moisture. This picture obviously has the sun behind the shadowed
hill. The other one you posted shows lightening near the horizon
where the thick atmosphere is. Of course the wide angle exaggerates
the effect.
