Looks good to me.
One trick to HDR is after you have your HDR image combine it with the best of the original shots in PS. Usually overlay the original and turn down the opacity to ease the HDR effect, or erase all but what you want to keep in order to clean up moving objects (clouds, people, etc)

In this case I think you might have been able to add back in the flags without so much blur.

It looks very clean and noise free. And colours are nice too.

For the flags, it could not be better, there was a lot of wind and with long exposures it is the best i can do. The idea of brigning back the original picture for moving objects is great, i will try it on a next venture.

Thank you both for the comments.
