RE: Sunset in the background light

[bambuka]

The second photo I made up of 4 shots 1/80, 1/250, 1/800 and 1/2000. I didn't have a tripod, this is hand-held shooting.
I combined these photos into a Lightroom in HDR mode, but I didn't like the result. The picture turned out to be too flat. I then manually added some shadows with a correction brush.

Maybe there were too big steps of endurance? But one step seemed insufficient to me.
At the same time, at 28 mm of focal length, I have a table f/7.1

What did I do wrong?

It's hard to say, you know. There are so many parameters of this equation.
Looks good to me though, perhaps your perfectionism? 🤠

I wouldn't claim to be a perfectionist... and in photography too :-))
I just want to process the way the picture looked before my eyes. I tend to be more realistic in nature photography, although sometimes I have to do deep processing. But this is to achieve any effect.
