This won't look right for you! The photos on this page are intended to be viewed on HDR monitors, and only some browsers properly support them. Chrome on an Apple Silicon MacBook Pro works well, and Chrome on Windows with an HDR monitor should work, too.

It looks like your monitor or browser doesn't support HDR.

In photography, “HDR” usually refers to blending darker and brighter exposures of the same scene to obtain a higher dynamic range than the camera can capture in one exposure, even though the resulting image is normally displayed with a much lower dynamic range – somewhere between 6 and 10 stops, according to Wikipedia.

Computer monitors are catching up to TVs in the brightness and colour gamut that they can display, so it’s becoming possible to view truly high dynamic range images with the right hardware and software. Unfortunately the software is still immature. For example, even though most modern phones have HDR displays, and can play HDR videos well, no mobile browser I’m aware of is able to render HDR images properly.

The images on this page are a mix of single exposures and blends, and were processed in Adobe Camera Raw and Photoshop.

Greg Benz has a more detailed explanation on the state of HDR images , including how to process them. He also has videos with demonstrations and explanations on his YouTube channel (playlist of videos about HDR here).
