This was taken in Tent Rocks, a National Monument in New Mexico, not far from Santa Fe. It is well worth the few hours it takes to hike the trail. It is not too strenuous and offers stunning vistas, rock formations and hoodoos.
I keep coming back to this shot and have edited it numerous times and numerous ways. It has some challenges but says something to me. Let's see what you can do with it.

I'm beginning to think that a simple WB correction could have saved me a lot of messing about with the colours
. It's all good practice.

The foreground bush overlapping the tree seemed like the biggest problem after the sky. This was a solution.
If you could just put that memory in a bottle so you could remember it for the rest of your life.🤔
If you could just open that bottle release a small amount and feel the moment all over again.
Thousands or more pictures within the picture. Thanks for posting.
I downloaded and processed using PS Express on the iPad. PSE is a set of presets. All its Enhance tool did was add color. Not spectacular enough to post.
Ok I am throwing my hat into the ring.

What a great challenge! I was trying to emulate that red rock effect you can get in these areas. I think I was partially successful. I now know another area of post possessing that I need to work on.

Minor touch up of a good shot
Well, here's mine. I didn't know how to change the sky colour, but I sure wanted to. I did change the exposure, the tint and the saturation. Not wonderful. I don't know what colour it should be.
