Hi Jan and Greg,

Thank you very much  for your  suggestions. Finally the issue seems to be 
solved. It is true that the problem is  in HDR generation process. We divided 
each of the pixel values by 179, then HDR seems to be in  radiance compatible 
format. Now the results of these HDR images from Evalglare are more meaningful.

Once again I thank you for your effort. 


Best Regards,
Raghu
