It never hurts to do a little burning and dodging in photoshop either. This is why we bracket and focus on different objects in the scene.

Even most point and shoots have a 'Night Shot' mode which flashes the foreground then holds the shutter open to grab the BG. It's better for night shots (of course) but in this situation I'm guessing it would net you something between photos 2 and 3. I like your HDR image as well. I agree that too many of the HDR images (especially on flickr) are so overly done as to look very unnatural. Not like what I see thru my eyes at least.
