Its a noble first attempt, but it doesn't seem very "highly dynamic".

Honestly, its hard to do HDR without it looking stupid (sorry everyone!)

Not sure what your process was, but a lot of guys try and shoot a single exposure and then adjust it into 3 - 5 stops of exposure through software. If you're going to do this and want a true effect, you need to shoot the photo say -1, 0, and 1 on exposure. I don't see too much in the way of "HDR" in that image. And, honestly, its important that you have an image that suits it. Most HDR doesn't happen well at night time.
