not much different between ur original shot.
think u hv 2 switch ur shooting object.....landscape is better 4 HDR
just my 2cent....havent try HDR b4 ....  hmm.gif

I think the main reason this HDR shot doesn't look HDR at all is because there are no shadow or highlight details to be revealed, which is one of the main reasons for HDR.
If there were more shadows and overblown highlights in this scene, the shot would have turned out better.
Just my 2 cents wink.gif

Camera Model: NIKON D70s
Lens: AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-55mm f3.5-5.6G VR
Aperture: f5.6
Shutter Speed: 1/30
ISO: 1600

Ramblie, you are not focusing correctly.
The bug lacks attraction bcoz u focused on its body instead of its head which is the 1st thing a viewer would see.
Then there is also the problem with the amount of noise.
Refrain from using such a high ISO.
You don't need it.
For macro shots (in order to have a more dominant bokeh effect), try to use a bigger aperture (f/2.8 > f/5.6).
Bigger apertures means better bokeh effects.

Personal opinion:

I see a lot of quite annoying lines running around the photo coming from the light bulbs.
Quite distracting.
I m guessing a lower ISO might help hmm.gif

Both skies look really great.
But your 2nd shot has shadows/sillhouettes merging in the foreground (the fence and the tower).
Could be something you might want to take note.

hahaha.....not negative comments hanieyf.
We r all working on improving our photo taking skills! wink.gif

Another way maybe is to align all the lines so that they are in the same direction.
That way, the lines might work to ur advantage even.

Ya la...that time the wind blow and my AF not focused well...

That's why la the plant not sharp  sad.gif

1st off, it is not the wind or the grass's problem that is causing u to not focus well.
It is ur camera settings.
At that kind of aperture and shutter speed, don't expect u will get a sharp picture especially when there is movement.
You need a very fast shutter to capture things in motion, e.g. 1/2000s.
And it was broad daylight, so using such a shutter speed is no problem.

2nd thing, u r shooting macro, why r u using such a small aperture?
Remember aperture affects the "bokeh" effects of macro shots.
The bigger the aperture, the better the bokeh (f/2.0 > f/7.1).

3rd thing, if u r really having problems focusing, y not manually focus? (assuming u used AF for this shot).
This way, the camera will not be cheated by movements of the grass.

Not bombing u here Ramblie, so no hard feelings ya!
Learn from mistakes.
I m learning from a lot of guys here too!

A bit due to editing.
I opted for the more contrasty look between the shadows and the sky to bring out more blue in the sky.
If u r seeing a bit darker, also could be due to different monitor settings.
