Actually I really like the ghosting of the people in this, but the haloing around the roof and steeple (although sort of ironic given the subject) stop me from giving this a 7.

Great job on the car, but the sky hurts this one (for me at least). 6

As with a lot of others in the challenge, the sky is what is stopping me bumping this to a 7 from a 6. I always find it so hard to get the sky right when doing HDR/tone mapping.

Not so sure about the sky in this one - there is haloing around the trees. Shame, it's otherwise a nice image (still it got a 6 from me)

I think the less is more approach works a bit better with the HDR tools. I like the composition of this image, but the processing really is a bit over the top.

Excellent processing, well done. Lovely. ETA: I re-read the comment and just wanted to say, I wasn't just scoring this based on the processing!

I really like this image, the composition, colours and even the use of topaz give it a very nice painterly feel, however, I do not think it really fits the bill when it comes to HDR. The details have not been enhanced here, rather hidden by using the topaz filter. Nice one for a Free Study, but not so much for HDR.

I was away whilst this challenge was in voting, so this is the first time I have seen this image. I have to say, I am astonished that it scored so low, as I feel it's a pretty strong image. I haven't looked at any of the others in this challenge, but I would really have expected it to be up there in the 6.3-6.5 range. Would have got a 7 or 8 from me! So, sorry doesn't help explain the 2s and 3s but...
