First attempt at HDR

Hello,

I realize it's not that great, but would like some feedback. I don't have AEB, so this was all done manually. I would appreciate any criticism or comments. Thanks!

No. It's Saturday night, you have a low post count indicating you're new on the block, and your link is making it hard for people to look at the image.

The greens are way too yellow and over saturated. I'd give this photo a 2 out of 10.

Ok, I'll mess with that. Thanks for your feedback.

Makes me want to puke sorry i hate HDR not as much as selective color

Ok, I get it. Not a good picture, but some suggestions would be nice. What I mean is, all I did was take the 3 photos, combined them in Photomatix, and didn't adjust any levels. I get that it's too bright,but the 3 original exposures didn't have the neon green.

HEAVILY Tone mapped... typical of HDR and Photomatix neophytes! Try and make it look more real.. less radioactive!

When you say you combined them in Photomatix, did you go into tone mapping at all? I have had some images come out looking wonky like that, pre tone map.
