Several people have commented that they thought this image taken with the Nikon D800 was an HDR image when in fact it is taken from a single shot without HDR processing.
Much has been spoken about the size of the 36.3 megapixel sensor in the D800. But in addition to the high resolution, the sensor has amazing color depth and dynamic range (the highest rated sensor ever tested by Dxomark) and I think this is what gives the images a film-like or HDR look. A pretty amazing landmark camera IMHO.
