A couple of observations regarding the use of HDRI images with landscapes. HDRI work great for metallic objects with reflective surfaces. No question about it. There can be a problem however when using HDRI skis with landscapes as the image itself will be used as a sky and ground. If you image has low resolution, it will become very obvious. So... if you want to use that great technique, make sure you have a very high resolution image to use as your sky, or to hide the sky and ground altogether.
