Sorry, but it looks like it was done with a preset and no fine tunng. The halos and the dark sky just don't look good to me.

I Agree.The purpose of HDR is to enhance otherwise lost shadow or highlight detail. I intuit you have a nice image in your original file. Not sure what you were trying to accomplish.
