 Thanks for all the comments, suggestions, critiques...this is one of those images that I stuggled to find the 'final version'. What I presented here is still missing something (as a couple of you commented on), so if you have any brilliant ideas, I am all ears....

This is stunning. There is the issue of the sky through the trees which is a problem I run into quite frequently on my attempts at HDR. I think the bright spot in the sky adds to the problem perhaps. I still really enjoy looking at this shot though.

I wish that was my driveway.

More of a landscape crop would be better, but this is great in itself

I think the processing adds a lot of intrigue to this path... I just feel there's perhaps something missing that I can't put my finger on. 6

I really like the mood created by the processing here and the way the road leads the eye through and into the picture.

I like the winding lane leading you into the image, sorry but the sky just feels a little unnatural somehow in a way i can't quit put my finger on, I think its probably what appears to be evidence of masking through the trees, the sky behind the trees on the right looks much brighter than the left. I may be wrong and doing you an injustice but good luck anyway

The color tone is excellent. Love the curved lane.
