This is Sabino Canyon, near Tucson, AZ.

It's essentially an oasis along a creek in a desert canyon.

This edit drove me nuts, because while it looked great on my PC, it looked horribly overdone on my Mac.

Heh - more 10s than 9s. :)

Thanks to EL-ROI for his insightful comment. I agree, and the version I'm going to use in my annual photo book will be edited differently.

I'm guessing this shot looked stunning through the camera view finder. I like it, it's just that for me the finished product ended up looking too busy (distracting and my eye is being pulled in a lot of directions. Just giving my .02, not trying to be insulting.

What a gorgeous scene. I like how well the tree frames the photo.

Love the scene. I am not sure how the lighting was that day, but this , shot appears to be too bright on the edges. The darker area appears to be the focal point, but because the edges are bright, my eyes are drawn away from the scene.
