I don't think you should buy Photoshop at all. You are doing fine with the tools that you already have :) j/k of course. It is impressive that without having Photoshop you are doing so well in the challenges. You are on a roll! Congrats in HM!

Pleasantly surprised that this one did well considering that you did not exactly follow the description of the challenge. DPC is usually very unforgiving when it comes to not exactly following the challenge description. Maybe the voters are loosening up a bit? Who knows ... congrats on your ribbon!

One important thing in HDR is you need to make sure that your darkest shot does not contain any "blinkies" or at least as little blinkies as possible unless you are shooting into a light source. This will ensure that you will not end up with blown highlights like parts of the clouds in your picture. On my camera, I keep pressing the info button to turn on the blinkies. It is very tempting to cross the line of natural and HDR look and sometimes very hard to stop. I think overall you did very well and I am sure over time you will do an even better job. Nice start!
