Hi Ras.
While I like all of the shots in this thread & your others from your Wicklow trip, I have to say I hate the processing. Colours are OTT for me. Great scenes like these look much better if left looking natural IMO.

Hi Ras, sorry to hear about your car been broken into. I totally agree with miki on these. i like the comp but they are far too saturated for my liking. just my opinion of course

Hi Ras
I agree with the lads. The colours are way to saturated, the greens especially. Usually you have to tone down greens in HDR images. There is also a strong colour cast on the 2nd and 4th shots. On the last photo your your mask to darken the sky has also had a marked impact on the tall trees on the left. You can see where the trunk goes from normal tones to suddenly black at the top of the trees

All that can be resolved in post production though. I quite like 3rd photo. Nice movement in the water and the tree gives a nice balance to the image.
