Lots of HDR play

[EDL]

Well the ones I am happiest about are probably these...

There is another I do like which is overcooked, has halos and what not, but I will leave that one for now.
P.s., Yes I can get wifi, but I can't really leave the house for the next couple of weeks so it's not an option at this time.
And yes, I probably shouldn't say be gentle, I should say, don't be cruel about it.
I am looking to learn.

I like the compositions in general, but overall they seem a bit too dark. Also, 14 exposures? Not needed in these. 3-5 or maybe 7 at the most.

Okay, well this was literally my first play with HDR properly so I took differing numbers to try and figure things like that out.

Coming in late, I've got a few things. First, I really like the first image. It looked pretty good, and got my expectations up. I see good things in your work, but I would watch the grass and foliage. Neon green is a good hint that you've overdone it. And the sad fact is, HDR will accentuate whatever noise is there in the original images. Consider removing noise, and they will look cleaner.

How much to cook is a matter of preference; with experience, you'll get better at controlling the image, and then you'll find your way. Some will like it and some won't. Don't let it bother you; just try to keep getting better at whatever you want out of your images.
