 Taken at Meijer Gardens in Grand Rapids.

This was quite difficult to process due to the colors. To get the chairs to stand out I lost everything in the sky, but if I kept the small bit of detail in the sky I lost chair. After trying every B&W trick & filter I know of, I decided to try the Refield Fractalius filter in soft light, faded quite a bit. Then some curves and levels on top of it and I'm good to go.

Very difficult to process I think. Still you did remarkably well.

nice comments and explanation - a bit of an empty feeling, like something is missing from the photo though.

An inviting picture - and I really appreciate your commentary. Interesting that even with HDR you were still losing some detail, and that's quite a range of shutter speeds, too! Nice job on the post processing.
