Vladimir Golovin Administrator Posts: 3446 Filters: 55	High Dymanic Range Images. Filter Forge uses spherical HDRI images for lighting instead of old-style point lights you can see in other plugins. It allows us to reproduce real-world lighting conditions of the place where the HDRIs were shot or "captured". Also, they produce amazingly realistic reflections you simply cannot achieve with point lights.
