This is another great shot! The pose and the setting work well.
In my opinion, the flash overexposed the foreground rocks, but can very easily be corrected:
Layer, New layer via copy.
Image, Adjustments, Levels, go to the middle slider and slide it to the right until the center box under the histogram reads 0.55
Go to your eraser tool, soft-edged brush, size again dependant on the actual image size you are editing, Opacity and flow to 100% and start erasing back everything except the bright foreground rocks, You can zoom in and use a smaller brush to get more precision if needed, but if using a soft-edged brush, get near, but not on the dividing line.
Tip:
When you think you have erased it all, go to image, adjustments, invert and watch what happens. It will be pretty easy to see areas missed by the eraser, and while inverted, erase away, then Image, Adjustments and Invert back.
Flatten.
That is all I did and got this by doing only the above in about 5 minutes:
