Very nice. They convey those moments quite well, IMO. The first particularly moves me. If those strong blown highlights in those few bother you, there are field techniques one might utilize to tame them further, but all in all - good work. I like your instincts on these presentations.

Thanks Bob! I could have used a grad nd-filter on these but didn't have that at my disposal. Used a 10-stop nd with those. I like it to look 'natural' and close to reality in my shots and dont go for too much of a hdr-look. Less is more

I hear that.   Or rather the way I see it, once the novelty of the potential of HDR becomes normal/routine, it's the ability to reveal deep shadows as one calls for it that remains, as opposed to revealing it routinely because one can.   Especially for darker exposures the balance can be a delicate one.
