The blues are just too strong in the foreground (lower portion of the image). Would have corrected for it. Wish the bridge was a little more of a standout , currently it has blended too much into the shot. 5

The HDR edit did not come out quite right here. IMO if you had composed differently by including a lot more sky, I think it would have turned out better. Also from the composition , it is not clear to the viewer what the main subject was ? 5

Nice mood portrayed in this shot. Wish the lead boat was crisper in sharpness (leaving the rest of the image as is) , Nice creation , 7

Yesterday's Pioneer

Comment:
The cyan/blue hue of the hills in the background is a major distraction IMO. IMO should have been corrected. The problem with HDR is that many unwanted artifacts can be generated in the process which at times needs to be corrected. Overall the subject is excellent for HDR , but currently the overall composition is a little flat and lacks excitement. 6

Very crisp edit. My only niggle is that many won't really appreciate why HDR is needed for this shot. Anyway I like it. 7

Nicely done, I bet this would look great larger. Would have liked a little more foreground. 6

Mozart in Camouflage

very interesting edit. Good to have the textures on the statue , very artsy feel to the shot. Also IMO there is too much space on the left and it distracts because of the cloudless sky, 5

The colors are too muted. IMO including the tree in the composition did not help. I probably would have shot at a spot more to the left , focused the composition more on just the terrain & the river with less sky. 5

apologies but the creation does not quite do it for me. I am definitely looking at this shot and wondering what it is. The main problem I have is that I don't understand why you need to employ HDR to create this ? Sorry a 3 from me.

The highlights in the water is too burnt out so it fails in this challenge. The goal in HDR is actually to try preserve as much as possible the dynamic range & details in the image. Unfortunately the whites here are just too blown out. 4
