Something about the vibrant colors, stark contrasts and vivid depths of an HDR approach lends abandonments to HDR photography like few other subjects. Beautiful HDR pictures bring dead places and long disused spaces powerfully to back to life. Beyond this gallery, check out our collection of 100+ Abandoned Buildings, Places and Property.

Photographers like Julie Berlin (whose work is shown above) and many others (shown below) have opened the door on a new art form: that of HDR photographing dead spaces and deserted places in colorful ways and from carefully chosen perspectives.
