Standing on Ice

Another shot, taken while standing on a frozen lake. I really don’t like standing on ice, but I couldn’t resist, as it gave me the possibility to take a photo from a place, I usually cannot get to. Again I used HDR just a little here, to correct the overexposed areas of the restaurant and add more detail into the building and ice. Most of the photo is not HDR.

In this shot a restaurat on the Kuchajda lake in Bratislava.

Off to Madrid

I’m taking a little trip to Madrid this week, so for the next few days it will be no internet for me, just taking a lot of photos. Hopefully by the end of the week I will start adding photos from there :).

Millennium towers on ice

Another photo already taken with the Canon 5D. I’m starting to really like this camera. The difference is clearly visible. This photo is also mostly from the original shot. The HDR was used only on the building and the ice. In booth cases to add more detail to the area.

In this photo the Millenium towers of the Polus city center in Bratislava, and their reflection in the frozen Kuchajda lake.

Moving clouds

What a beautiful sunset this was. I already uploaded few photos of it, and I probably will add few more later on :)

New gear

So finally I upgraded my camera. I got a new Canon 5D mark II and also a Canon 24-70 F2.8 lens and Canon 16-35mm 2.8mm lens. For now I only managed to take few shots, but I really like it. All photos are cleaner and sharper. Really a great camera :)

On the frozen lake

So this is my very first HDR created from a photo taken with my new Canon 5D. I’m really very satisfied. It’s much sharper and cleaner than all my photos from my old 450D. This is photo taken from the middle of the Kuchajda lake. It’s quite cold in Bratislava and the whole lake is frozen over.

Pattern Magazine

I did a little interview for the first issue of the Pattern Magazine. It’s full of great photos from different photographers and it’s free, so there is no reason not to check it out :)

Old photo of the Old Bridge

One from the time I started taking HDR photos. This photo is already more than two years old. The time really goes by so fast :)
