Tree in the sunset

How about a little tip on post-processing today :). In photos like this, I usually have quite a problem with the halos, specially here around the tree. Usual way to correct this is to use the sky from one of the original files, or use the burn tool in Photoshop and darken the sky. But what I found, works quite well, is to open the file in Lightroom, select the brush, turn down clarity and brush around the tree. This helps quite a lot and is much simpler than other option.
