The 2012 Photoblog Award

I can’t believe my blog was selected as one of the 20 best photoblogs of 2012 by Photoblog Awards. It came as a really big surprise for me. It’s a great end to the last year and great start to a new one. The compelte list can be found on the Photoblog Awards page.

Small nativity scene

I visited Vienna for few hours yesterday, and of course I also took few photos :) This is a small nativity scene in the St. Stephens Cathedral in Vienna. There were two of these, one of each side of the cathedral. This HDR is only from a single RAW file, as no tripods allowed and for this I held the camera down on a railing. Looks quite good for a 2s exposure :)

Number of exposures: 1; Camera Model: Canon EOS 5D Mark II; Lens: Canon 16-35 mm F2.8;
Focal length: 16 mm; Aperture: 6.7; Middle exposure time: 2s; ISO: 320; Tripod used: no

Where was this photo taken:
