This Illustration was created by using High Dynamic Range Imaging (HDRI). HDRI merges multiple exposures of the same image and allows a greater dynamic range of luminances between light and dark areas of a scene than normal digital imaging techniques. The intention of HDRI is to accurately represent the wide range of intensity levels found in real scenes ranging from direct sunlight to shadows.
