Amazing HDR photos of Sao Paulo

im afraid im not as ''awed'' as you, but they look good

at first I was like "I could do better" but than ZOMG - the last picture before he goes under the bridge it started to become so awesome

That's one awesome bridge.

I love how all these hdr photos look more like concept art than a photograph. Saving some of these.

i like this one the most. really cool atmosphere. on some of the rest the editing is really meh though

Yeah, same. I think it's because HDR photographs aren't really very realistically lighted (our eyes aren't HDR), which of course makes your brain think of the way CGI looks.

I sometimes like to think of it as being "more realistically" lighted. Human eye can see a dynamic range of about 10000:1 while a digital camera only captures 400:1.

Nice images

Looks more like some highpass photoshopping to me. I really dont like the look of these so called "HDR" photos. The pictures show some interesting stuff tho.

The eye cannot see the whole range at once though, and similarly to a camera still has to adjust the light exposure. HDR images are designed to show the detail in all areas as if the camera could adjust the light exposure for all levels of light simultaneously (this is impossible).

Wow, great stuff there. The style of them is quite similar to the style I invision my Source project to look like in some ways.
