Here ya go ;-) I tone mapped it very little with photomatrix then what i did was go into Photoshop and chose image /adjust/ shadow and highlight. this helps bring back some loss that photomatrix does.. then for detail I made another layer and on the new layer I went to filter/ other/ high pass and I set the setting at 0.7.. and you will see that turned the new layer gray with a bit of embossing.. so now the gray layer. change that to the vivid color setting in the drop down where the layers are.. I find this works a lot better then unsharp filter

now if this was my image i would be fixing the hot spots in the clouds..
but this pretty much the way i edit all the time :-)
