I am posting a link to my first HDR photo and am just wondering if it is a good HDR image. I also wondering about composition as I don't take a lot of landscape shots. All the angles confuse me sometimes. Any Advice is welcome. Thanks in advance. I used photoshop CS2 for HDR workflow following this tutorial

Actually its not to bad. I like the colors and the composition. Nice work for your first HDR. Can you post the original as well?

I actually took three exposures the original is the correctly exposed one than I took one 2 stops overexposed and another one 2 stop underexposed.
Also cloned out the wires on the right hand side as I think it looks better without them. It was a windy day and the cane in the foreground was moving and swaying but I like the effect of it coming out a bit blurred and the lighthouse sharp.
