Two shots, one location

[batmura]

These images were shot two months apart. In the first one, my intention was to emphasize the sky. In the second one, which I just took a couple of hours ago, I experimented with auto-bracketing because the sky was rather bland and I wanted to shoot something without an ND filter. C&C welcome.

I usually hate HDR but that 2nd shot is done sooo well. It looks like a very detailed oil painting. Your shots are always on point and locations are great. This is no different.

Both of these superb!

I like the 2nd one better. Your first one's horizon is off, it's tilting to the left.

Surprisingly I like the 2nd one even though it's an HDR. Nice shots.

I am not a big fan of HDR because it seems so often they are overcooked and no longer look like photography to me. HDR's that are done well like this one expand the dynamic range of a scene more to what our eye sees so I enjoy them.

It was worth waiting - 2nd one is amazing. The proper lightening is the key - well done!
