wow i wish i could fail like that sometimes
i really like the ghostly appearance of the couple it actually adds a lot to the image
as far as a HDR goes what program did you use to merge the 3 images {ok i see now PhotoShop HDR}
try downloading a copy of Photomatix Pro from www.hdrsoft.com
i am sure they offer a trial version
then you can tonemap to enhance the detail and colors

I don't know anything about HDR, so I can't comment about that. However, the double couple intrigues me and makes the shot. I wish the sky was more colorful. You could try eliminating it altogether. Just a thought:)

I like Deb's comment, the flare gives sci-fi feel, from a different time.

I really like the semi transparency of the couple. It works well with the hazy atmosphere.
