Catching the City Sunset

I was just relaxing in my flat yesterday, watching some TV show, when I looked outside my window. What I saw was just an absolutely stunning sunset. The clouds and the colors were just wonderful. So I grabbed my camera and tripod and almost run to the park, which is few minutes away from my flat, to at least capture few shots of it. And this is what I got :)

Btw. the only part of this photo, that is a HDR is the park. The clouds are completely from a single photo, the -2 exposure. I just lightened them, removed noise and added more contrast. No HDR processing there :) (also the bottom part vent only through photomatix and then noise reduction, no other changes)

Photo taken in Bratislava, city part Ruzinov.

When the stadium lights are on

Was hoping to take some new photos on Kuchajda lake yesterday, as there were very interesting clouds. But due to a very strong wind and that it started raining about 30 second after I arrived there, I didn’t take a single photo :). So here is one taken a year ago :)

Bridge Lights

The Apollo bridge looks really nice at night. And as it’s a little away from the city center, there are usually no pedestrians there after sunset (just a lot of cars :) )

Green Truck

How about a nice old car for today :) . This one was so beautiful. It looked like it was completely new :)

Yellow lights

I have a lot of old photos of the Old Bridge and from time to time I edit one of them. Each time I’m quiet amazed how differently the resulting photo looks compared to the ones I edited only a few months ago. As the processing steps change and I learn new techniques, so the resulting images change.
