Nice sharp view Alireza - very lush greens brought out by the HDR. I think the sky looks overdone though - well, maybe not overdone but the gradient between the dark band at the top and the lighter band closer to the horizon is too sudden and too much. It's always a challenge getting the HDR merge just right. My last posting has a bit of haloing around the minaret that doesn't look right so I know it's difficult.

Good work though converting from the single HDR - I certainly look forward to seeing some more ffrom you.

Cheers

A good adaptation of HDR to this shot!
Great details in this dramatic sky and the greenery.
Nice contrast between green and grey.
A good POV with ample DOF.
Good work,

Hello Alireza,

I will have to get to grips with this HDR.
With this shot, I feel I want to move the screen in different directions because it has the possibility to produce that 3D effect!
The composition is certainly spot on!
I don't agree with David.
I think the sky looks tremendous but the greenery looks a little os, posibly the effect of HDR.
For me, the jury is still out on this type of photography but I know it is very popular.

Have a good day,
Bev :-)

Hi Alireza,
Very intense HDR, the green tones play such a crucial role in this scene. You were lucky to get such interesting cloud coverage. Great DOF from f/20 too, I like this.

TFS,
Scott.

very nice HDR with great post proseccing saturation. (i think you,ve used low saturation for highlights) that makes it very interesting shot.
BUT!! in my opponion its a little boring and unfortunatly the only thing that could help this picture is behind the tree. :>

dear Alireza,
fore vivid green field and back slightly high contrasted cloudy sky make original feeling,
in lots of HDR images, I see that the brightness is excess dark, and the contrast is unnaturally enhanced, of course those show us interesting effects, but original goal of HDR is to edit dynamic range.
about your this picture, this mild result is comfortable to my eyes,
thank you for your excellent picture,
Akihisa

Hi Alireza

The orange tarp contrasts well against the blue sky. Good sharpness & high pov. I like the dramatic tonal range in the cloudY sky. Tfs!

Hi Alireza,
Adjusting an HDR-derived image is indeed like cooking, you have to season repeatedly to suit your taste...it takes time and practice. IMO, using the exposure balance feature of Photomatix will perhaps lend a more natural look. A lovely composition nonetheless, photomatix certainly evened the exposure. Best regards.

Hello Alireza
I like the very lush greens in this and the distant clouds and the HDR treatment does not look too cooked.
A blanket of green always contrasts well with the blue sky.
