Waking up (part 2)

And as promised here is the rest of photos I took last weekend at the Botanical Garden in Bratislava. (better said, the rest of the ones I liked the most :)).

All shots taken with Canon 450D with Sigma 18-50mm lens, handheld. Mostly at F2.8.

Night colors

I processed this photo few months ago, and never got to publishing it :). So here it is now. This was again one of the days, where every single shot is beautiful :) There were such beautiful clouds and sunset that I’m actually sad I didn’t take more.

HDR from three shots, taken with Canon 450D with Sigma 10-20mm lens, from a gorillapod.

Compare to the original 0EV shot:

Waking up (part 1)

Since the spring is upon us and we had such a lovely weather this weekend, I decided for a different post today :) This is a quite different style of photography for me, but I like to try more than just one style. So if they are not the best, please have a little patience with me :). These shots are not HDR’s, they all have just been tweaked a little in Adobe Lightroom, with no other editing done on them.

I will post a second part of these shots later this week, since I took quite a lot of them :).

Light blue sunset

A lot of HDR shots come out quite dark. So from time to time I like to have some with nice light colors. So here is one :)

On the Street

Not all my photos are HDR’s. I usually don’t publish them, since I’m not really sure if they are any good. But since my friends quite liked these photos, I decided to share them :). Maybe there are not that bad :)

The first photo was taken in Vienna (Austria), the next three in Bratislava (Slovakia) and the last two in Prague (Czech Republic).

Nature’s Mirror

What a surprise :) Another reflection :) . I took this shot in the Botanical Gardens in Bratislava. Had to tone the HDR a little down, by merging it with the original exposure, as there were too many details.
