Default First HDR of mine that I liked

This is 3 exposures using a 2stop ND filter and a CP, taken around 6pm, before the time change.
Generated in Photomatix Pro and then brought into PS CS3. This is the first time that I got good results with Details Enhancer vs Tone Compressor. Anyway...



C&C welcome. Thanks for looking!

-Pat

It came out quite nice, although a little dark on my monitor.

Thanks!
Yeah, at home it looked good, where I'm working today it looks different even on the 2 monitors hooked to the same system.

Agree with all. I think it would look really awesome with a touch more brightness.

Looks nice. Very natural looking, which I like.

Thanks and I can see your point about brightening it a bit, but I think that if I brighten it, it will look more like a daytime pic and not a dusk sunset pic.
I do appreciate the feedback!
