Your eyes adjust and you are then able to see details etc. This is the same mechanic as a camera's exposure, which is the length of time light is let into the lens/film etc. Same mechanic with the eye, except its not based on an "exposure time" but based on the quantity of light that enters through your pupil. I am not a photographer but I certainly have enough experience with film, so if you want to throw crap my way make sure you think it through.
@Roy: He didnt nail much, HDR in games is completely different than HDR in photography. Seriously, dont say he nailed it because it makes you look stupid, when was the last time you say a print or a picture emiting light? Not often, but a monitor does. In basic theory its the same "physical mechanic" which is based on light and the eyes perception of said light, in practice photography and graphics engines are very different in nature.

Also HDR is an effect that can be toned down if they want to, but eliminating it is silly.
Did I mention hdr IN A GAME??I look stupid??You need to calm down my friend.You got a right to defend your ideas but that is not the way.You do the same on every thread,who do you think looks stupid??I said he nailed the description of HDR I didnt say inside a game.I got a tip for you, whenever your angry start counting from 1-10 very slowly then reply. This forum is so full of whine.
