Normal sudoku rules apply.
Yin Yang: Shade some cells such that all shaded cells are orthogonally connected, all unshaded cells are orthogonally connected, and no 2x2 area is fully shaded or unshaded.
Sight Lines: Digits in caged cells indicate how many cells of the same color (shaded or unshaded) are seen orthogonally from that position, including itself. The "other" color blocks vision.
HDR Thermos: Values on thermometers must increase from the bulb end. For the purpose of evaluating thermometers, digits in shaded cells have NEGATIVE values while digits in unshaded cells have POSITIVE values.

I enjoyed the frequent transitions between YY, thermo, and sight lines. The combination worked perfectly!

Funny YY! Don’t know whether thermos with negative temperatures were already used in a puzzle - I love them. Thank you very much for creating and sharing this one.
