Was the building white? To me it looks a little over burned and muddy.

Yeah, the HDR process really made this building look unnatural -- sorry. The muddiness and glow around the edges are classic HDR problems.

They are problems like you say, but if you know how to use the software correctly they can be avoided.

Yeah, the murky white definitely detracts, and the vignette looks very artificial
