What I am protesting is the use of the HDR term when you are washing the work away with an over bloomed scene. Never-the-less the need to use HDR techniques will be lessened once real time ray tracing goes mainstream. I don’t doubt a reason for using HDR.

If you look into a room with a broad range of brightness, right now I have a semi dark room and my bright computer monitor in front of me, and I can see the detail both on the monitor and in the darker room. A camera would be unable to cope with this either overexposing the montior or underexposing everything else but our eyes are fine with it. A graphics card would likely fail to render this well, but with HDR it could render the scene "true to life". Anyways thats what I thought the point was, one more technology in the graphics world that allows the scenes to fake reality. The reason you want to render with HDR is that our eyes are HDR devices.
