Okay, really, not to be a dick but this is what bugs me about these contests. To the author of the image, this is my personal critique, just to help you in the future. The post production is horrible. It's obvious the sky was cut out and replaced with a different sky image. Whatever tool was used (Magic wand, pen tool w/ a path, etc.) didn't work. This is in part to a lack of expanded selection path which would have deleted the white around the trees, bridge, signs, etc. Way too much adjustment was used either in an HDR program or the HDR controls in Photoshop. Once again, this is just MY personal critique as a photographer for the past 20 years and I do not mean it to be mean, degrading, or anything of the like........
