This one above is one of a series of amazing HDR shots of the abandoned Beelitz sanatorium in Brandenburg, Germany.

Simply amazing ... At first, I thought the pictures were drawn art and not photos!

HDR needs to die. When it's done well it can look good, but it's almost NEVER done well.

Sorta makes it look like a badly lit theatre set.

Looks like high-resolution screenshots from Half-Life 2.

HDR is one of those things where, at first blush, it seems kind of cool, but then you see it EVERYWHERE and its novelty fades fast.

At least that's been my experience.

Man, I hate hate hate HDR. It strips images of all depth, contrast and subtlety. These pictures suffer especially, because they have less mystery about them than the originals would have! So pointless.

I'm fascinated by HDR pictures. So much so I'm trying to teach myself how to make them. Beautiful stuff.
