Spring panorama at the lake Bled

Last week I stopped by the lake Bled in Slovania. And while the views were beautiful, the weather was a big boring for photography. The whole time the sky was either clear blue, or like in this photo, with a very soft clouds. Not really something that looks great in photos. But still I took some and will share them with you.

So here is the first one. This is a 4 shot panorama. Each shot taken with a 10 stop ND filter. Combined and edited in Photoshop. It’s a bit wide, but I did not want to crop it. It just shows the whole view so nicely.

And here are few details:

Under the SNP bridge

I wonder if I noticed things as much, before I became a photographer. Now, when I see a change in a scene I visited before, I see it immediately. I don’t remember it being that way before. I would walk through the city, ignoring everything. I don’t remember ever stopping and just looking at the sunset. Something I do all the time now. Even if I’m not taking photos (and of course, those are the days with best sunset :)). Maybe I just look more for what to take photos off. Probably. Still, I’m glad that I changed. I enjoy every walk through the city that much more.

I took this photo under the SNP bridge few weeks back. There is a new scaffolding there, so looks like they stared a reconstruction on it. A part of the bridge was closed off before, as I think there are building a new cafe/restaurant there. I’m curious what they will do here.

This is a two shot panorama, each shot a blend of three exposures, edited in Photoshop.

And here are few details:

At the Hohe Wand skywalk

Must be a crazy feeling just jumping off a cliff and flying around. When I was at the Hohe want skywalk in Austria, there were quite a few para gliders flying around. And some of them even very close to the skywalk. I did try paragliding once, but not this kind. The kind where you have a big propeller behind you and a pilot in front of you. Was a great experience.

This photo is a blend of two exposures. Actually both para gliders in this shot are the same person. I captured a series of shots as he flown by, and then chosen two to put together. Edited in Photoshp.

Canals in Amsterdam

I’m so tired today. Spend a lot of yesterday in trains and travel always makes me so tired. But one has to work, so what can one do :). So a bit later update today, but I hope you like it.

This is a vertorama taken at the most popular photography spot in Amsterdam. There are always photographers there, photographing the canals
I still don’t have a nice sunset shot form it though. And tried to get one at least 10 times already. I even once booked a stay in house 3 minutes away, just so I can be there really quickly. Still, no luck. Will have to try again.

This is a 2 shot vertorama, each shot from 3 exposures, blended and edited in Photoshop.
