High Dynamic Range







Lately I've been playing with High Dynamic Range or HDR. For those of you not familiar, I'll use the definition from Wikipedia since it is much better than mine. "In image processing, computer graphics, and photography, high dynamic range imaging (HDRI or just HDR) is a set of techniques that allow a greater dynamic range of luminance between the lightest and darkest areas of an image than current standard digital imaging techniques or photographic methods. This wide dynamic range allows HDR images to more accurately represent the range of intensity levels found in real scenes, ranging from direct sunlight to faint starlight"






Here are a couple of images to which this technique has been applied.
