Lovely, lovely park..... :~) You have really given yourself a challenge! The circumstances in which you are shooting these is difficult for even very experienced photographers. The exposure is way off in this unfortunately. The foreground is overexposed and the background has lost it's details in shadow due to underexposure. I would usually not photograph in this type of light but sometimes it is the only opportunity to do so. Possibly a neutral density filter....although it seems, just be looking that there is a big diffence in stops needed between foreground and background to get proper exposure. It would seem that advice given previously, expose for foreground/ expose for background and put together in PS would be called for here.

I am, therefore I create.......
