Super rich colors and tones give this a great gloom. Storybook sky.
What I'm about to say is something I cannot do, but with some of the software out there I know it's possible and I think it might even give this already great image a boost. You obviously know what you're doing with PP, but consider this... The eye is caught in the front of the photo with the fruits, and then it has to jump over a bit of dulled space to get to the great sky/horizon. But there are more fruits at 9 o'clock and then another closer to the cityscape. The cacti also seem to present a trough right there. With some targeted exposure manipulation of brightening that fruit up a bit and "lighting a path" through the trough, you'd be able to lead the eye from the rich fruit up front, through the cacti to the other fruit, and on to the horizon and sky. Just a theory, of course, but maybe worth playing around with. or it may completely ruin the image.
Regardless, this is super. |

I heard that once one approaches too much a certain type of cacti they throw spikes - just like poisonous arrows - and cover the intruder totally turning him into a sort of captured Gulliver. I imagine that they look very lovely, just like these ones. Delectable tonality.

| Hmmmmm. I feel like I'm looking at two different images - the upper sky one and the lower cactus one. The transition between them seems too dark. But those "tunas" look delicious. |
