Hyper realistic rendering.

[Gate bois]

Hyper-realistic photos are my point of view, photos when viewed on the big screen feel like you're in the scene being photographed, likewise seeing 100% detail.

When we can appreciate the rendering, the roughness (or not depending on the materials) of the textures of the various elements constituting a scene, a photographed subject. Likewise, how the different elements present in a photo will stand out (perception of relief).

As well as the richness, the precision in the transcription of the nuances of colors.

These different criteria which, in my opinion, bring a feeling of hyper realism to a photo, a feeling of immersion when viewing the entire photo on a large screen, or in detail. Zoom in to 100% to have the feeling of feeling the different materials, textures (wood, metal, stone), to see the smallest details, to have the feeling of being in the scene being photographed.

very nice samples. I'm a hyper reality fan.

Here is one for you.

This is a petrified chicken mcnugget I found cleaning out my car many years ago.



I feel like i could step right into this one.

And this has seriously got the hyper jzuzh going on.

… Gate: A fair ideal, and well expressed in your first and third image, and in your second series.

… A thought. Been considering the difference between capturing an image, and creating an image. Your ideal would be considered capturing an image. Hyper resolution would be a reasonable tool in capturing. Capturing is a challenge in technical craftsmanship. And, you prove yourself a worthy craftsman with the excellent Sigma sensor.

… However, it is not an artistic challenge. It is not creative. There is nothing innovative or original. It is simply capturing an image. Not disrespecting fine craftspeople, but there is a clear line between the two ideals.

There is something hyper here, not so sure it is the rendering.

I guess if they have anything in common it's high contrast shadow detail. But contrast, both big and small, is something that all photographers should keep an eye out for. I would hope everyone has lots of photos like this, just a matter of the right lighting.

The first group, okay. Aliasing is fairly well concealed in those. But this second group, no.

Every one of these shows severe aliasing that pretty much ruins any illusion of realistic rendering when exploring detail at 100%.

You have to either be pretty selective when choosing subjects with Foveon cameras, or sacrifice detail in shots like these to remove the aliasing.

… Also, ignore the pixel peepers and their microscopes. What kind of a person considers a painting from one millimetre away?

... photos when viewed on the big screen feel like you're in the scene being photographed, likewise seeing 100% detail ... a feeling of immersion when viewing the entire photo on a large screen, or in detail. Zoom in to 100% to have the feeling of feeling the different materials, textures (wood, metal, stone), to see the smallest details, to have the feeling of being in the scene being photographed.

… ignore the pixel peepers and their microscopes.

You're telling the OP to ignore himself.

Ridiculous hyperbole. Here's a real question: Who (aside from you) buys a Foveon camera to display murky results at less than 5MP?

You have some imposing subjects and views but you need to work with perspective. Some are disturbingly almost symmetrical or almost straight and some are awkwardly cut off such as the golden gate and the colonnade. Many can still be fixed in post. Whether to keystone or not is more of a personal choice. I do it 99% of the time but I am an architect so it's a bit of an occupational disease. But if verticals are almost vertical+close to the border they do need straightening such as the window. I never get it perfect in the field either so do it in post. I particularly liked the shady portico guarded by the little statue and the modern facade with the spiral stair.

Interesting theory.
I won't buy it.
The purpose of the hyper realism art current, which emerged as a reaction against expressive painting, was to eliminate emotion.
I don't believe that looking a picture - as realistic as it may be - is enough to make one's feel on the spot. There are plenty of others elements to factor in: surrounding noise, smells, wind, ...

Maybe that is what we are supposed to see.

It certainly won't be in the blown-out skies in the park scenes, either not enough DR in the camera or not making good use of it

After looking very carefully at 100% I can't find any aliasing. Could it be that it's an effect of the monitor you're using? Mine is an older HD so maybe it shows up on a 4K monitor.

The OP apparently is one of those people because he said this.

"Zoom in to 100% to have the feeling of feeling the different materials, textures (wood, metal, stone), to see the smallest details, to have the feeling of being in the scene being photographed."

That one sentence describes very well why many of us like to pixel peep and your insults are totally off base. It would be just as wrong for me to say people who don't pixel peep are simply happy with poor IQ or own cameras with lousy IQ. It's wrong to criticize others who simply have a different opinion as to what makes a good photo.

I disagree. Get off your high horse and yes you are disrespecting fine craftsmanship. Everybody has a right to their own opinions but it is wrong, in my opinion, to declare one opinion better than another unless one of them deviates from the facts.

… Dishonesty and hypocrisy in one post. Nice.

Just from one image:

The vertical lines on that bright wall

This is all over that building

The horizontal rails: color aliasing!

The diagonal cable

Aliasing or not, that grass looks fake

Me neither. There is some visibility of stairstepping pixels on the peep at 4K, but that's just what happens when you zoom in given the available resolution. I see no reason a very large print couldn't be made to good effect.
