Lighten the rock, darken the sky, adjust contrast and boost saturation. Crop and sharpen.
Took a tour to Jordan last week, an amazing place. No wonder Petra got voted to be one of the new seven wonders of the world. The light wasn't in my favour as the tomb (rock) was in shadow, have to light it up in PP. I left people in the shot in hoping that it might help showing the scale of things here :p
Hi Thanaboon, Good composition and well handled in the stitching area. Your right about the lighting position but did the best you could in bringing out the detail. In this case the people are a minor issue and don't bother me greatly.The cloud on the left looks like a dissapating contrail.(plane exhaust) While it frames the left I don't view it as a plus. Might stand a bit of CCW rotation also.
Regarding the time of day and what you were facing you came up with an interesting image...
Hi - did you try any HDR?? would be interesting also.
Dont think you could have done any better with the light you had to deal with - stitching looks good.
Looks a little bright on my screen - could just be my screen though.

Does look like a fine place and all that have been come out impressed !!!
Agree with comments and you did very well ... great idea regarding an HDR, with lots of light you can set up a high shutter speed and quick bracket .. could be interesting!!!
