21 HDRI 8K Downtown Night Streets Skyboxes

Downtown at night from just above the rooftops, with towers close enough to fill the view. Long gold light trails run along the roads, and the buildings around the camera give a real sense of standing inside the city.

Most are blue-black skies over dense blocks. File 03 drops lower, to a busy junction with billboards, and file 04 has a large screen on a building. File 02 is further out, with a tall glowing spire above a wide city. Files 05 and 08 add water to the view.

Try these for:
- Rooftop and balcony scenes
- Night driving and superhero-style shots
- Reflections on cars and glass
- VR city experiences

What you download:
- 21 .HDR panoramas at 8192 x 4096, 2:1 equirectangular
- A contact sheet with matching numbers
- A short README covering Blender, Unreal Engine and Unity

Each HDR image was checked for bad pixels. A visible join can show at the back of some panoramas, including file 21, so face your camera away from the edge of the image. Billboards show invented, unreadable text. Detail is soft when viewed at 100%, so these suit skies and backdrops better than extreme close-ups. Peak brightness is about 1.0, so they look their best as visible backgrounds. For strong sun shadows, add your own directional light.
