I agree with Craig it looks better with straighten horizon

Sorry, something went wrong with the sky (especially on the right hand side) when saving to jpeg, this version has the more proper and soft looking sky.

This is another sample to show one of the shots used to create the HDR image, this one is with longest exposure.

This is an example of how the single (non HDR) shot of this sunset looks like and hopefully it will help Mr. Leonidas2008 to understand what sort of contrast we're talking about here and let him see the difference. Anyway I can see landscape details in the HDR version, maybe it is time to adjust your monitor settings Mr. Leonidas? No offence, peace!

Clone Tool in CS

Just by some judicious use of the clone tool in Photoshop CS I removed the tree from you image. I can see nice elements in both but I prefer the cleaner look of the treeless image.

blur / colour profile

(1044) [2008-02-08 19:59:49]

Something was wrong with the top left corner where the blue didn't fade smoothly, I thing because of jpeg compression so I fixed it by blurring. Colour profile was not assigned to the photo so it was slightly oversaturated when I uploaded it, this version has the right colours.

I made the dark shadow area very slightly lighter with a slight contrast mask, then i made the rainbow colours slightly more intense using a "soft light filter" and then i made a tiny S in the curves. Finally i applied a smoothing filter to get rid of all the noise but also not enough to ruin the ground.

1- Reduce noise especially in the sky.
2- Desaturate colours a little bit
