Yesterday, for the first time, I tried my hand at HDR. This photo of the Oswego Vineyard was taken at 10 a.m. at ISO 200, f/16 @ 1/125 using a Nikkor 17-35 lens at 30mm.

Raymond,
I could tell that it had the "HDR" look to it. The lighting seems a liitle unnatural and that's from the HDR effect. Like the S&H tool, a little goes along ways. That aside I like the comp and I thing you did a good job making an ordinary scene into something more.
I agree, a little too unnatural , but not a bad comp.

Interesting. To my eye, HDR images usually look "off" in luminance too. The luminance here looks good but the color looks off, especially too saturated in the reds. I'd play with dropping the saturation some, and maybe blending in a little of the originals (a little goes a long way, like Erik said).
