Welcome to POTN ME2, and well done for posting a pic with your first post!
As to your shot, what settings did you choose, as it doesn't strike me as very "HDR"? I don't use Photomatix (I'm a GIMPer!) so don't know their software, but I'm pretty sure you could whack up the effect some more!

Hope to see more from you in here.....

Thank you, And no, the building was once an old machine shed for the Chicago/Cheyenne RR main which ran a few hundred feet from my property...But I do have an old out house in my back yard that I will post at a later date

Very nicely done. There is some loss of contrast in the grass and weathered planks, but no biggie for a first try.

Welcome!
