I'm not really talking about HDR, as that a bit well, subjective.
I'm talking about using an image that that was captured by a device that can have 12-18stops of dynamic range. Something better than film, something better than 70's film rendered in magazine print and scanned in later.
or more succinctly, something that would capture the whole range of a colourspace.
I completely agree on dynamic range, and on the fact that we should use a reference image (or images) more inline with modern camera equipment. I don't believe though that _random_ instagram content would provide a good, balanced reference :-)
