Bluntly honest, it looks completely fake, totally unnatural. Yes, maybe the sky was that color, but when combined with the over processed barn, it just doesn't fit.

The brown halo around the sun is completely unnatural.

Not sure what else to say, to be honest, it's just a bit of a mess, sorry.
Sorry I can't contribute more, I don't do HDR, but I would suggest a more traditional blending of the different exposures you got to get a good exposure of the barn and then one of the sky.. after that, then play with making it look less photography.
