Well, it's not how I thought it was going to come out - something is not quite right about this - I can't put my finger on it though.

The more I look at this the better I like it. Probably underrated in the voting. Well done.

Interesting edit of saturation around the power lines themselves. Not sure whether I like it or not. Nice dramatic sky.

The sharpening might be a bit much. The power lines in the foreground seem to have halos and take slightly from the continuity of the sky. Otherwise, stunning.

Great colours, makes quite an interesting subject with the pylon in the distance ... would be cool if there were even more though. I find the processing a little extreme thought for my liking

You've done a good job making an ugly thing pretty here. (not voting yet)

odd banding in the sky, far too over processed for my tastes

overly and/or wrong use of shadows/highlights produced ugly glow everywhere. too juch sturation, too. composition is good.

The one thing I've noticed with tone mapping and HDR, is that if there is a line, the tone mapping breaks up the background. Kind of like the far left wire. The right side of the cloud is dark, but then on the left side of the wire it's light. So the wires make that part of the sky really uneven.

It's a nice looking shot, but the uneven tone mapping ruins it for me.

It's OK, but the sky looks a little plastic...6
