I took most of these photos either with Canon PowerShot A610 or with Canon EOS 350D with various lenses (most commonly I used 12-24 f/4.0, 60 f/2.8 Macro, 70-200 f/4.0). Some photos were post-processed on the PC (there was a huge post-processing in case of HDRs), but most of them were only resized. I kept original EXIF info in all photos, so you can see the exact camera model and exposure parameters in them.

HDR stands for High Dynamic Range imaging. In this technique you take a few shots of the same scene with different exposure values. Then you combine all images together into one image with high dynamic range and perform a tone mapping to reduce the range and present the image on the screen in a traditional, low dynamic range way. You can read more about it on Wikipedia.
There was time when I took photos for the Wikipedia. You can view them on Wikimedia Commons.
