For processing this shot of clouds reflections in the high rise glass, I took a slightly different HDR single image HDR approach, using Nik HDR Efex and the "Old Vanilla" preset that can be downloaded from the Nik Software site as a starting point. Then I adjusted levels in Photoshop CS5 and added by "CSI Miami" glow in Nik Color Efex Pro. The overall effect is like shooting the old Agfa 400 sheet film.
Finally, I used the color shot to make a solarized version in Nik Color Efex Pro.
