When I stay at home

Quite often when I go out to take photos during sunset, I get the most boring colorless sky. And this is how it looks when I decide to stay at home :) I took this one today, just from the balcony of my flat. It was raining the whole day and just around the sunset the sky cleared a little. I just could not resist to take a photo.
When I stay at home There is always the most stunning sunset when I decide to stay at home :)

Something a little different, but you can’t take the same kind of photos all the time :). I like to take a little break from HDR sometime and shoot something else. And I also like portraits, I just need more practice with them :)

Number 1

And we are at number 1, the most favorited photo I have on Flickr. And also the first ever photo I had on Flickr Explore homepage.

This is for now the last look back and from tomorrow I be back with the new photos.

After sunset in the Sunflower field I really wanted to take a show with the sun still above the horizon, but we were traveling on a highway, and could not stop by any of the fields, and by the time we reached this one, the sun was already down. But I still like it :). Everything is a little more blue, but still fine :).

Number 2

Continuing with the 2nd most favorited of my photos on Flickr. I can’t wait until I take the same shot with the 5D mark II. the problem with this photo was, that with the 7D I could not fit the whole moon into one photo. I had to do a panorama. But with the bigger sensor of the 5D, this should no longer be a problem.

Almost full moon My plan for last weekend was also to take photos of the stars, as the 7D has quite nice performance on higher ISO levels. But I didn't account for the very bright almost full moon. It was so bright, that the stars were almost not visible. So I took photos of the moon instead :)I actually felt quite stupid when I took this. The reason was, that the setup I used, the 7D with a Celestron telescope, could only capture something above half of the moon and you couldn't zoom out. And it took me quite a while to remember, that I can create a panorama from multiple shots, to capture the whole moon :) This is not a HDR shot, I took multiple exposures, but the didn't align properly and the HDR from a single RAW didn't look right to me. So I just created a panorama from two shots, removed the distortion and did few steps I usually do in HDR post-processing.Panorama from two shots, taken with Canon 7D and Celestron CPC 1100 GPS telescope.

Number 4

Let’s continue to number 4. Again the New Bridge, but this time from the opposing side. It’s already more than a year since I posted this photo, and two years since I took it, and still it’s one of the most liked of my photos.

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.
