High dynamic range

HDR image by Christian Meichtry

I ran across a set of amazing, kind of surreal high dynamic range images on Flickr, in the Japan HDR Pool. (They were all "all rights reserved"; the image posted above is a Creative Commons-licensed HDR posted at Flickr by Christian Meichtry.) Wikipedia has a good overview of HDR. explaining that "its wider usage was, until quite recently, precluded by the limitations imposed by the available computer processing power." You can produce HDR images with any camera - it's a matter of post-processing, combining several exposures to get a greater dynamic range, i.e. the range of values between light and dark areas. You can create HDR images using Photoshop.
