Such a lovely view, isn’t it. The last two times I was in Prague, I went to the top of the Old town hall tower. It really is one of the best places for nice photos in Prague. But next time I will probably skip it, as there are many more towers there, which I still have not visited.
Sometimes you have nice clouds and sometimes you just don’t need them. This photo is mostly about the great sunset color, and how nicely it reflected onto the river. I thought about cropping it more onto the Prague castle, but as usually I decided against it. Somehow I almost never crop my photos and stay with the composition I chosen while taking it.
Somehow I always get to this bridge late at night. Will have to go there once during the sunset :) At least there are no people there at that time.
A handheld HDR from a single raw at 2000 ISO? Not very usual setting for me. I didn’t even take this so I edit it, just to have a photo that I was there :). But as you can see, it doesn’t look that bat at all. My goal was to use my tripod and do a proper (at least 9 brackets) series. But I was just to slow. The guard noticed me and ask me not to use it. It was strange, as they had no problems with flash photography, which I think is much worse than using a tripod.
I neglected a little the wallpaper selection on my blog, so today I added three new ones. You can find them as always on my Desktop wallpaper page :)
One of the hardest type of photos to edit, when yo need different white balance for the blue and yellow parts. So for anyone who is interested in my Photomatix settings, and other steps I did to edit this photo, check out my Facebook page where I posted a Photomatix screenshot together with a full description.
