Thanks Polarbear. No, this isn't really an HDR. I did double process the RAW image twice, but that was only to darken the ground a little bit. I think what it giving it a bit of an HDR look is that I moved the Clarity slider down to -98 in Adobe Camera RAW. It really softened certain areas of the image and added a lot of mood that I really liked.

Love the colors, does hearken to a time past, but the blacksmith sign seems a little too sharp for the feeling I think you are trying to convey.
