A big improvement

You will find this with a much better sky in my album for the South Western USA. However, instead of having to use only one frame and then spend hours making very necessary improvements, straight out of Machinery there is little that remains to be done. I might want to do it again and make it less contrasty but one thing stands out.

Just to the right of the big rock face on the left, into the valley of the Grand Canyon much lower down, I had a halo effect which I could not get rid of. Laboriously I did manage to largely remove the halo but it was hard work, took several iterations and was not entirely successful.

With Machinery, there is virtually no halo! I have had the same problem more than once before and I now have hopes of overcoming halos much more successfully, often avoiding them altogether.
