did you make them in photoshop? photoshop isnt the greatest for HDR's, you should try making them with Photomatix Pro

they look good, but my biggest tip is to try and keep the sharpness of the image. ya notice how after doing an HDR of the pictures, it became a little dull? also, notice how the sky went from blue and white, to more of a greyscale? they look good though. HDR's are a really hard picture to make.

when you tone map it, instead of doing "detail enhancer" do "tone compressor", and go to the "color" tab on the left side and up the saturation (not too much though).
