Very cool. I like it a lot.

Any chance of recovering some of the details in the blown out area of the statue, or are they gone?)

I tried, they are gone. That is one bright light in front of it.

I echo RM's opinion/instinct.

Very cool shot! (with one of the focal points too overexposed)
Since you are doing more HDR...it would be even cooler if you went back (if the location is nearby) and milked more highlight detail from the scene.
