The sky looks great but I think you should try to consider what is in the bottom half of the photograph- the fence and the tree block the setting sun and IMO clutter the bottom of the photograph. Also I guess there was some light spilling onto that tree- giving it that yellow look.

Right then, joke's on me as I now have to plough through 564 images and bump them all (yes, all of them) up. There'll be a third run through for fine tuning.

Technically very good (I think), but the effort of bringing out the light on the ground has cost some resolution. 6

HDR here is good and not overdone but the multi-colored stars almost look like hot pixels from long exposures and detracts, imo. Think they should have been one color. Rising/setting sun really makes this pic better and gives it another dimension. Also, I think you should have cloned out the lights in the distance background (on land). My eye is wandering around with no place to rest.
