- Watch your verticals, esp when you have edges of tall buildings right up the edges of the frame. Consider doing some correction.
- Severe halo along the horizon. Very typical problem with HDR. There are ways to mitigate/remove it.
- The lighting on the terrain building seems brighter than the dark sky but details in the trees are gone, only black patches left. Feels unnatural this way.
- If you are using photoshop, go easy on the detail, strength and edge glow sliders.

Keep practicing and you will improve.
