Statue HDR

This was a wild attempt. Any and all constructive criticism would be greatly appreciated.

For me, the center of focus is between the colors and the sky. The statue seems to get lost in this. Does have a nice exposure blend to it though.

I think the shot would have pulled off better if you focused a bit more on the statue and maybe shot it from ground up towards the flags or flag. Alot closer to the statue too... Of course shooting it in a no wind situtaion would be better also.

What did you use to blend the photo together?

For the problem is that this composition does not fit well with HDR because the red flowers are in a 3rd line plus they have too much saturation. Not all compositions go well with HDR . I have a book about that if you want it msg me, I'll gladly share it with you. Cheers.
