I really like the shot but think the vehicles kind of take away from it.

In the bright sunshine of midday, I suppose the vehicles traveling through the tunnel were in very black shadow. I'm sure HDR brought up some shadow detail. The sky is a natural color.

Lemme guess, Hawaii??? Love textures and colors. But seriously, why title it that way? Do you think your going to get more votes or something? it's to tally irrelevant to the subject. Sorry, 5/10

I think that the process you used makes the stone seem spongy.

Good use of the treatment to deal with the heavy shadows and bright highlights of midday sun. I find myself looking in the tunnel to see if Clark is in there.

3 - HDR is way over-done, in my opinion

5 - A reasonable use of HDR, but not a very engaging photo, in my opinion

7 - A reasonable use of HDR, and an engaging photo, in my opinion

10 - A fantastic use of HDR, and an out of this world photo, in my opinion
