I like better the third and the fourth one, while the HDR, though good, is a little grungy for my tastes. Good job!

I really like the shots other than the HDR shot, its a bit over processed for my taste. However the 3rd shot is great. I really like the 1st and last ones too! Thanks for sharing these, keep practicing with the HDR for sure.

That my friend is the beauty of photography, you really aren't wrong for trying out new things, because the only way you really will get better, is by just doing it. Keep up the good work
