Fake high dynamic range effect for Gimp
i like a lot the output ,especially in your examples
nice script
But i found script name misleading HDR , true or fake do not boost the colors as in your examples and in that on tutorial page
Maybe something as Color-boost-HDR or Technicolor-HDR
will describe better the effect
(is not needed to add "fake" all hdr scripts for gimp create fake hdr since the real requires 16bit )
16 bit??
Why does it require 16 bit?? In fact what are you talking about?
HDR simply stands for high definition range. it is a technique where you combine the highlight / lowlights from underexposed / overexposed images with an original normally exposed image to improve the overall image.
You are clearly an idiot
Please go and take a long walk off of a short pier so as not to contaminate the gene-pool
16bit??
Clearly Anonymous you are the fool. A simple correction rather than a tirade of insult would have sufficed to get your point across. The suggestion to walk off the end of a pier is also a clear indication that the only thing functioning between your ears is in fact one gene.
To clarify the point, to create an accurate HDR you do in fact require multiple 16bit or above images.

HDR?
HDR does not stand for "High Definition Range". It stands for "High Dynamic Range". Definition would refer to the number of pixels per inch in the image. That is not affected in HDR. Dynamic range refers to the difference between the darkest and lightest areas of the picture, not the number of pixels.
HDR?
Real HDR require as imput images at 16 bit.
What you call HDR is tone mapping aka FAKE-HDR that may be done also with 8 bit images
.
The reason why they use 16
The reason why they use 16 bit is that they can record light levels far above what your monitor can display at max brightness(like the sun), and far below what it can display when its off. You could hypothetically use something with more or less bits, but you would start to see the larger gap between the shades if you used too small a number, and it would become more noticeable.
I agree that this is more like tone mapping.
