this landscape of Sabino Canyon in the NE section of Tucson, AZ is surrounded by mountains on both sides which can be observed from the approximately 8 mile gorge that runs through the bottom of the canyon.. The area is rich in vegetation with an abundance of Cactus plants. I look forward to seeing how you each process this image and the creativity I've seen from the contributors to past images and your views.
I've included a link to a raw version of the image and have attached the raw converted to jpg with no processing down below.

Pardners. Ya gotta have friends to survive out here, one way or t'other.
Just some tweaks, I like the original.
I thought the flowering cactus was beautiful so I added a few more:
This is the best I could do on short notice. Good Luck to all.

Nice Image. I gave Luminar 3 a try instead of my usual workflow of LR/PS
Took my paints and easel to Sabino Canyon

Started with Adobe Raw Filter (basically Lightroom, but knew I would be going into Photoshop) and then used luminosity masks to isolate the mountains, to which I then added contrast and detail. Removed a few extraneous distractions, added a bit of color and contrast to the sky, used a color balance layer to add some blue to the shadows, yellow to the highlights, and then finally addressed my central issue with the image. I could not find a subject to really draw my attention . . . hence the work on the cactus and the crop. Voila, some improvements I think.

Lloyd here is my look at your interesting image. RBorud
quite a nice variety of creativity in the edits so far. Keep them coming.
GOOD MORNING SABINO CANYON!!
It's been far too long Please view in 'download'
I thought Loyd gave us a pretty good picture to start with giving us the feeling for the land in Sabino Canyon. I gave it a bit more contrast and a touch of saturation. At that point I wanted to see what your picture would look like framed and on a studio wall.
Beautiful shot to work on. Thank you for the opportunity.
