Hi,
I'm not a newbie at PS but am probably not yet at intermediate level either.
I purposely chose this photo that I just shot in the desert because it has numerous problems.
Perspective and/or len's distortion and I'm not sure that I know exactly if this picture has just one, or both of them.
Bland sky etc etc.

I still don't fully understand how much I should use exposure when working in RAW before I switch to brighten!
I have looked at lots of tutorials about exposure but none of them explained how far to go before using 'brightness".
I know that I must avoid clipping highlights.
Please take a look at the before and after pictures and tell me what I've made worse and what I've made better.
If you want to download, then click on a thumb, and then mouseover; click on download and you'll be offered different resolutions.
Talking more about the technical aspect and not the artistic one.
Thanks for your feedback, _________________ Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
