HDRI - My most recent "artsy trend"

Neale

Debonaire Rationale
High Dynamic Range Imagery - I've been very heavily trying to perfect it over the past week or so. Basically, it's taking in the upwards of 20+ shots of an image at different ISO levels ("film speed" for you non-digital folk), and then merging them into one, 32-bit image. As you will see below, by merging several 16-bit RAW frames together into one 32-bit image brings out color levels and shadows/highlights not normally seen with one image. The downside is, uncompressed these images can be up to 150mb EACH.

Here are two of my examples, compared to non-HDR shots. The first two are HDR:

These last two are just straight, non-merged images:
