Default Castle in HDR

Cardiff Castle, South Wales, UK.

Looking Up 3

3 bracketed shots at +/-0.7 merged and tonemapped in Photomatix. Shot with a Sony A200 and the 18-70mm kit lens.

The EXIF for the base image was:

Exposure : MANUAL
Shutter : 1/100
Aperture : F10
Focal Length : 35mm
ISO : 100
Flash : OFF

I like how the castle itself looks but would like comments on the sky, particularly the bleached clouds and the halo around the tower.

Your thoughts, please!

The sky looks ok to me, but I am sitting with my laptop. What I have noticed is the lack of sharpness and also the perspective of the tower needs adjusting.

I think the sky looks ok. There is one spot on the clouds near the right were it seems just like a blot of white and it doesn't seem as natural. Overall its a really nice photo
