How do I actually view these HEIC HDR PQ images?

I totally understand what HDR PQ is and how it works in video and in photos, but what I don't fully understand is how can I actually view them on an HDR display.  My MacBook Pro has the HDR 1600 nits display, and I can play HDR movies on it which look amazing!  However, when I view these PQ HEIC images they don't look any different - they look exactly the same as on a regular monitor.

I saw somewhere that if I plug my R6 MkII directly into my HDR TV in my living room via HDMI then I can view the photos that way.  Is that the only way?  Is the Mac (or the software on it) simply incapable of displaying HDR photos at this time?
