New to HDR

[DaveH76]

I've taken my first tentative steps into HDR editing and photography and i'm already hooked :)
These are the result of a pleasant autumn afternoon at a local church.
I've tried to use a slightly different end edit on each shot. Any feedback is appreciated.

It started getting a bit overcast towards the end of the session so i edited this one accordingly.

I think 2 would look so much better if the lighting wasn't so harsh. I assume you used photomatix. Try smoothing the lighting more. Also some ghosting on the leaves. Maybe clone that out in PS. Trees are so hard to get close up HDRs of. Good stuff for a beginner. It takes a ton of practice to get all the tricks.

#3 looks very nice, not overdone at all. Also, I enjoy #4's lack of saturation, very harsh but enjoyable- maybe a little more light on the top ivy though. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for the feedback :)

I also like #3, it kind of reminds me of a jigsaw puzzle picture.

Really like that last one. The desaturation works well.
