What is HDR Effect?

HDR Effect simulates the high dynamic range look on any photo. It enhances shadows, highlights, and local contrast to produce vivid, detail-rich images — all processed in your browser using canvas tone mapping.

How to use

  1. Step 1 — Upload a photo or drag and drop an image file onto the canvas.
  2. Step 2 — Adjust the HDR intensity, shadow recovery, highlight compression, and local contrast sliders.
  3. Step 3 — Compare the before/after with the split view, then download the processed image as PNG or JPEG.
