Under the Eiffel tower

Lack of updates

I’m really sorry for the lack of updates recently. I’m currently on a work trip through Switzerland, Germany, France and Netherlands, and I’m not that much at my PC or online. I do hope that I would get some great new shots, but the weather is just mostly horrible right now, so not much luck there. I still will be mostly away for the next week, so hopefully after that I get back to more regular updates.

Under the Eiffel tower

For today, how about one of the Eiffel tower photos, I already had ready :) Taken early in the year, one of my many tries to have a few less people visible around the tower.

This is a two shot vertorama, combined in Lightroom, finished in Photoshop.

Mobile Wallpapers

For a long time, I wanted to add a new category to the wallpapers section, that being mobile wallpapers. But here the choice for resolution is a bit harder, as not every photo has the same resolution or even the same aspect ratio. And to avoid having every photo in many resolutions, I decided to go with the most average one. So for now, all wallpapers here are 2:1 aspect ration with a resolution of 1080×2160. This will fit most screens quite well, even if on some a bit from the edges gets cut off.

As always you are welcome to share these further, just please mention me as the author and link back here. Thank you.

Bratislava, Slovakia

Almost a year ago

Almost a year ago

The year really quickly approaches its end. I still feel like only yesterday I took this photo, on the 1st January of this year. It really was cold :) Now I’m already thinking, where do I go for fireworks this year. If I stay in Bratislava, or try one of the capitals of surrounding countries. Hard decision. Who knows, maybe I do nothing, as my cold allergy is horrible right now. My hands hurt like hell. Oh what fun :)

This is a single exposure, taken last New years celebration in Bratislava, edited in Lightroom and Photoshop.

Blue sky in Paris

Hope you all got what you wanted this Black Friday. I personally finally ordered the Canon 2x III extender. I really did not want to pay full price for it, as I know I will not use it that much. But there are photos I want to try, where the 200mm I have is just not enough. So I will try with 400mm now. I also got a lot of new games for the Xbox One X of course :)

For today’s photo, here is a evening shot taken on the street leading to the Eiffel tower. This is a two shot blend, done in Photoshop.

The discounts are worth it. So as before, here is a list of discounts I found for now. There will be more as Friday approaches, and I will be updating this post as I find some :)
