Good scene. Has potential, but there are a lot of haloes and the look is unnatural. I'd recommend searching for different pathways to the end image. Or, capture other images for blending which produce better outcomes.
Hi Tammy. I saved this one for last, because I was skipping the vote, but I wanted to do a 100% comment. So, here goes. I think the processing here was overdone quite a bit. It looks like it was just cranked up with Topaz. (Please see my Flickr stream for some experiments of mine that did not work) I also know this is probably your first effort with HDR techniques. I would love to see the out of the camera shot, maybe even the RAW, and perhaps see what else we can do with it. If you are still talking to me after this comment.
I'm not a fan of this white glow on the tree and i think it's a little overprocessed. I really like the details and colors though. The sky is nice too.
