When I tried a crop prior to posting my comments, I did more panoramic aspect so as not to lose the wide spaces. Is your crop of a different edit, less saturated? When I compare mine (see below) - which is a simple crop of your first photo, I think I'd want to tone down the colors of that lower right corner. Slippery slope, ha!
Whatever works for you, Fred, is obviously the right answer.
Thanks for indulging me!
Thanks, Linda. I'll experiment further. One of the perspectives I had hoped to keep is that the road went down into that far gully, and not up.
I go back to the raw shot each time. Also experimenting with Adjustment/Equalize and a layer to use the slider on.
