Hypnotic Photography Technique

It's not often that I simply post a picture to this blog - nor was it ever my intention - but this one deserves exception. It's a shot of Manhatten taken from the Empire State Building, its vivid, mesmorizing colours the result of a technique called high dynamic range imaging (HDRI).


For more examples of HDRI images, check out Flickr's HDR Pool, which has hundreds of HDR images and guidance on HDR resources, software and more. And if you like the pic above, you should DIGG it (that's where I came across it).
