Well if you are using Image Based Lighting, which I think you are, you need to change the mapping to Angular. That way there is no hole in the HDRI. I cant crit much because theres nothing really to crit about, I mean, those are just spheres user added image

oh, btw about those holes, you are using the actual probe for the HDR image. The probe is the little reflective ball thing that you use to make the image. So my advice would be to do a google search for HDRI SHOP. From there, once you download the program, you can then change it from that reflective ball to a dome for nprmal HDRI. Hope that helped ya, user added image
