"You can never have enough HDR libraries, but now a days, what makes a good HDR is not only its technical quality but its artistic merit as well. The HDRI skies from Hyperfocal Design shows great technique, high res, great dynamic range, and high quality photography, with a wonderful aesthetic eye that will offer the users a great lighting resource." -Christopher Nichols Author of Global Illumination: Exteriors and Interiors from The Gnomon Workshop 
HDRI Map - Concrete Tunnel
High Dynamic Range EnvironmentsEach HDR (high dynamic range) Environment can add instant, super realistic lighting to 3D scenes, with accurate reflections and a dynamic background that reacts realistically with semi-opaque surfaces such as tinted glass or atmospheric effects such as dust and smoke. Each HDRI Environment map contains a range of exposure values from extremely under exposed to over exposed, allowing artists to choose precisely the exposure or "shutter speed" required. Quality Our HDRIs use only the best quality digital optics for crisp, clean images - we don't use mirror balls or distorted, low quality fisheye lenses. Due to the huge resolutions achieved, these images are amongst the only HDRIs available that can be used for background images & reflection maps as well as lighting. They provide maximum flexibility for your virtual camera and scene, allowing long zooms and extreme detail in reflection close-ups. High Resolution HDRI EnvironmentsFor use in projects requiring high resolution or quality, next-gen game titles, print applications, or for more creative freedom and virtual camera flexibility. Use high resolution HDR Environments for lighting, backgrounds and reflections. Medium Resolution HDRI EnvironmentsFor use in realtime, or low to medium resolution projects. Real-time HDR Environments for games allow the use of dynamic exposure adjustment, which can mimic the human eye adjusting to different light levels. Also useable for lighting and for lower resolution backgrounds and reflection maps.

Backgrounds When used as a background, HDRIs allow for dynamic, changeable exposure with enough resolution to allow long camera zooms and top quality prints. HDR backgrounds react realistically when viewing through tinted glass, smoke, fog and so on. Or convert to an LDR image such as tiff or jpg and choose exactly the exposure level you require. HDR images have such high bit depth and are so editable that you can heavily alter the original HDRI with minimal quality loss. Create moody, colourized, contrasty images with no fear of grain or banding artifacts. Lighting If your software supports it, use the HDRI map at full size for maximum sharpness in your shadows. Or down size/blur to any level you require. HDRI lighting provides accurate color representation that matches the HDR image for super realism. Reflections If you've got a close-up of a car body or if you're looking through a reflection in a window, or if you are working to a high resolution output, the high resolution HDR images are for you. Lose the flat look that low dynamic range reflections produce, and see how much pop, realism and contrast your reflections achieve with HDRI. Time/Weather Conditions and Locations Browse through an ever increasing collection of HDR image maps featuring a variety of time, weather conditions and locations. HDRI Environments include stormy coastal regions, tree lined streets at sunset, dry lake beds at noon and more. Choose Your Exposure LevelYou don't even need to be using HDRI lighting to benefit from Hyperfocal's HDR maps - one of the drawbacks to traditional LDR images is that you are limited to the low dynamic range of the single exposure level provided. HDR images allow you to perfectly match the exposure level and mood of your 3d scene.

Compatibility Hyperfocal design's HDRI Environments are compatible with any application on PC or Mac that supports .hdr (radiance map) or .exr files. This includes all major 2d and 3d applications such as HDRShop, Adobe CS2 & CS3, 3dsmax (Vray/Brazil/FinalRender), Lightwave, Softimage XSI, Maya and Mental Ray, Vizrender, Cinema 4D and so on.
System Requirements- High Resolution HDRI: The 10,000X5,000 HDR images are taxing on older systems and software. Some software applications also feature memory and texture size limits that may cause problems when using full size HDRI. Depending on the complexity of your 3d scene, your hardware and your software, your results may vary.
- HDR Shop: Please note that HDRShop has some problems editing and resizing large HDRI even on fast machines. Operations on HDRIs at 10kX5k in HDRShop can require up to 1.2 gigs of RAM, and since windows can take half the available memory, you may need over 2gigs of RAM.
- ArtizenHDR: Will not open large HDRI
- Photomatix: Will not open large HDRI
- Photoshop CS2: No known problems loading or editing any size HDRI (resize using bi-linear filtering to avoid the "black spot" bug).
