This is a 3 shot HDR

The sky is a bit blown out.

Fantastic shots, they just seem a little dark for my liking:

Visual chaos, hard to look at. In #2 I actually have no idea what I am looking at above the "horizon". Is that sky, or a farther-away snowy slope? What's going on? The contrast is so high that everything seems to be rendered from the same palette which consists of: Black, Pale-Sepia. Technical problems abound, with halos all over the place.

All that said, they are all basically the same composition, and it's a good one. The eye is nicely led down an interesting stream bed to a pretty good place in the frame, and contained there by the masses of rocks. There's a lot of great textures lurking there in the chaos, and the larger masses are placed nicely in the frame, once you sort out where they are. I think these could do a great job of conveying a mood if you toned down the processing and thought a little more about what you want to convey and what kinds of effects might accomplish that.

All pushed too far in processing, with #3 coming the closest to a high impact image. The sky appears blown, or the white point was pushed too much. I'd like #3 with a controlled sky.

Why does #1 appear so soft? Left frame in #3 is also very soft too.

Wow...I forgot I took these shots two months ago. Looking at them now, I don't really like any of them and probably wouldn't post them today. Thanks for the C&C.
