Nice composition and good colors on the sky. Looks like you have tried to use flash for lighting the foreground. Clever attempt to get the HDR effect.

I shall be rating this challenge by the following criteria:

1 - Not HDR in my opinion

3 - HDR is way over-done, in my opinion

5 - A reasonable use of HDR, but not a very engaging photo, in my opinion

7 - A reasonable use of HDR, and an engaging photo, in my opinion

10 - A fantastic use of HDR, and an out of this world photo, in my opinion

Your photo receives:

5 - but barely. You could have toned down a lot of the spot processing here. (or what looks to be spot processing)

Very interesting choice of composition. Sky looks good. I would have scored it higher without the flash. 6
