Help needed with DHP HDR sunrise

[Slobodan Blagojevic]

... Makes me want to just take two and blend them manually!

Ahmm...

Have you tried manual blending?...

... Actually, Jeff Schewe even suggests to use just two...

 

Now seriously... the latest version is an improvement, at least in terms of color, however, I find the sky still to dark in relationship to the middle ground.

So Russ, Slobodan, and Jeff all agree and I'm thinking so do I. You guys are always right! That is why I appreciate your comments!
As for the balance between the sky, Slobodan, and the landscape, I could claim artistic license, but that would be a cop out. I worked on it all day; I will have another look tomorrow.
For some reason, this was a difficult PP, but I've learned a lot already.
Thanks for the help!
