Default First attempt at nature HDR

Took some HDR shots of what is (durring the summer anyway) a very popular creek but is currently dry, this was the best shot I got. Any C&C is welcome.

Sorry to say your stacked shots haven't lined up properly in me eyes, the whole thing looks blurred. Sorry

I agree with Attic, clearly blurred as the branches on the tree on the left don't line up.

yyyup.. Tripod is a must, but if it's windy, you've got no chance of getting three-five of the required shots.
Just make multiple exposures from the same RAW and process that way.

I tried my red and blue 3D glasses and it still didn't straighten things out. Not a bad shot mind you just a bit off. Keep trying though, I've even gotten this far.

ok, I got a headache and had 3 seizures from looking at that! lol. Just kidding. Give it another go. The blur is overpowering. Where's the water? Looks as dry as my country.

a lot of burnt shadows in it, which kinda defeats the purpose of the HDR technique. you'd be better off just tonemapping a single RAW file and then you'd avoid the alignment issues.

Did you add, by any chance, some Orton Effect on this image?
