The same thing appears around the cloud in the middle its actually an affect contrasting between the sky and the upperclouds its not just the left hand corner its the whole top.

If highlights and shadows were both applied and too much was used you get weird things lik this. I have a shot where the shadows under the truck were lighter then the ground in the rest of the photo. It has "contrast burns" around where the shadow meets light. Kind of like how these clouds and the sky connect.

If you can explain how it got there, then the SC would be more than willing to reconsider the DQ. Your original had no corresponding detail in that area of the sky.

It's from Clarify in the brightness/contrast mode

The woman's tilted chair/table seems to clash with the straight skyline too much.

A definite xxscarletxx influence here in the tea-table set-up. I do like the idea of the formal set-up out in the wilderness - one that will always appeal to me, and the sort of scene I can imagine creeping in to my dreams. The almost cartoon like clouds further the dream theme. Nice one.
