While waiting in the airport lounge at Washington Dulles I took a bunch of photos at different EVs and made them into an HDRI. So here it is - I release it into the public domain for all of you.

It's my first attempt nothing professional.
I used five exposures -2, -1, 0, +1 and +2

3 x 2EV is not enough in most situations. Try to make it -6, -4, -2, 0, +2, +4, +6 EV so the darkest one has nearly no light and the brightest is still over exposured.

Just thought I'd share a couple of packs I've made using Vue & 3Dmax, not the greatest quality, but I've had some fairly decent results with them.

Hi guys,
Here's some free samples from Hyperfocal Design.

We offer a couple of Time-Lapse HDRI Sky samples here:

And a single HDRI frame here:

I quite enjoyed playing around with the time-lapses with Blender/Octane, really quick and easy to use, great results etc!
I'm no pro 3d artist but I created a few tests like this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U7OiVObc6ag

Cheers!
Jay
