Only me

It’s always fun when somebody messages me, and calls me a team :) I think I should take it as a compliment, that my blog looks like a team of people are working on it. But no, it’s only me, everything here, from the customized theme, the photos and the articles is done by a single person, and it will stay that way :)

April weather

It really was a crazy weather in the begging of this week. I took this shot only few hours after I took the one I posted on Wednesday. And as you can see, that one had the city covered in snow, while there is none here. It really changed so quickly. I’m still missing here a little more greener trees, but no chance for that so early in the year :)

At least I hope that’s the name. It’s not really a bridge, as it looks more of like an aqueduct. Still it’s a great looking structure, which is really nice for photos. This one I took early in the morning, before the sunrise, as that’s the time when this area is free of any tourists, so you get it empty.

This is a HDR from 4 exposures, created in Oloneo Photoengine, finished in Photoshop.

And I’m back :) Back home that is from Cesky Krumlov, where I spend the last two days. It was quite a crazy two days, especially due to a very unpredictable weather. You could say, that it was Winter on Monday and Summer on Tuesday. The weather just changed drastically all the time. But the upside to this is, that I have photos with a lot of snow in them, and also sunny photos with a blue sky. Just the night photos are not that great, due to quite heavy flood lights all over the castle. But I did my best.. and I think there will be few nice shots.

But to the photo I’m posting today. This was taken on Tuesday morning, right after the sunrise. There was this viewing platform, from which I wanted a blue hour shot, but it was closed in the morning and in the evening. So instead I did this after sunrise and a day shot. I use my widest lens, but it was just not enough, so this is a panorama from two shots, each one from 5 exposure. My firgers were already completely frozen at that time, as I was taking photos for already two hours by that time. But it worked out quite nicely.

The photos from Prague seem to be quite popular, so here is one of the most popular ones :)

This one is really one of my oldest photos. So many different colors in this one :)
