Not really reading as "HDR" to me, but nevertheless the tones are handled beautifully here, which is the goal. Striking work! Bumping.

How iconic can you get? :-) I couldn't even count the number of times I've done this viewpoint myself, and it always thrills. Beautiful rendering on the clouds. Overall the image could use a tad more structure, maybe? Bumping.

The HDR is used as I like to see it used, in the manner of a zone system print. I love the symmetrical-but-asymmetrical nature of the composition. I wish the taxi weren't there, so left and right BGs balanced, but it is what it is I guess :-) Bumping.

The HDR is used as I like to see it used, in the manner of a zone system print. Very nice rendering technically, but for me the composition is a bit static with the gantry smack in the center; it fights against the converging diagonal sweeps of sky and pier. Bump.

Beautifully-rendered except for a hint of radial banding in the sky. Peaceful, perfectly-balanced image.

Very nice night-time HDR, soft and muted. Dark areas well-rendered for the desired mood. Interesting how the construction crane, which some might consider a distraction, and which could have been cloned out legally, ADDS something in my eyes. Well-seen!

Gorgeous, almost-metallic tonalities here. Gracefully rendered and presented. Bumping.

Very hard thing to do (I absolutely KNOW), this business of rendering backlit snow. This is very well done. Lovely scene. Bumping.

Wonderfully dramatic scene. The HDR is used as I like to see it used, in the manner of a zone system print. I do wonder if the darkest areas need a little more structure to render to best advantage on the monitor, but I'm sure this PRINTS spectacularly well. The rendering of the clouds is absolutely palpable, I want to drift into that softness and ride the moon to another country not my own :-) Bumping to top group.

This is top-notch night-time HDR work. It's a situation where the more-aggressive tone mapping works well. Bumping to top group.
