About this asset
Countryside HDRI pairs image-based lighting with this environment: a dry harvested field stretches toward a lone leafy tree under a bright sun and long streaks of cloud.
Lighting and scene uses
Try this open field for farm equipment or a weathered outdoor prop. The isolated tree gives a useful framing reference, but place it away from the subject if their outlines merge. Use the low horizon to leave room for taller objects and model the soil where their shadows land.
Resolution and map details
The product listing specifies 10K, 8K, 4K, 2K files in .hdr format and identifies the map as unclipped. The web image is a compressed preview; load the purchased HDR file as your environment texture to use its lighting data. Choose the map resolution according to the detail visible in your background and reflections.
Compare lighting in your workflow
Use the HDRI ground plane workflow to align the horizon and establish contact shadows. The Blender environment lighting guide covers a repeatable setup for rotating and comparing maps.
