Riverside - post processing

I was going out to dinner with my mom so I thought I would leave a little early so I could stop here and take a few shots. Loved the clouds so I tried the "in-camera" HDR setting. I did do some additional post processing too - just playing here. For the original shot:

It wasn't long (at least it didn't seem long) and I got that called "Kathy, where are you"!

[Sue Wilde]

Love the curling path along the bank and the HDR works so very well on the sky

[Peter de Graaff]

Super stunning

[Rachel Holbrook]

awesome!

[Simon]

Fav for me Kathy, Is this your fist HDR? Great job

[Rick Schies]

Great thick brush, and a beautiful sky. Worthy of a FAV

[Tara]

Gorgeous and very dramatic.

[Karen H]

I like the composition.
For me, it's a little heavy on the processing

[Colleen]

Great composition!

[Netkonnexion]

Great processing and excellent shot. Nice light.

[Deb]

Love the processing!

[Mike]

I also like the composition. The HDR seems a little overdone to me. Also, is the pic tilted or is that just an optical illusion?

[KWind]

What a gorgeous spot. I like the processing...very dramatic.

[mittens (Marilyn)]

@simon0128 It is my second in camera HDR - I then used the Advanced HDR in Ippicy
