Girls love Napoleon

I love street photos, I’m just not very good at them. But I’m trying, and hopefully with a little practice, I hope I get better. So this week, the photos will be a little different :) Quite recently I got a new lens, the Canon 70-200 2.8 IS II and I spend some time with it. Hope you all like them (and don’t worry… there will again be a lot of HDR here :) )

So let’s start with a nice one from center of Bratislava. This Napoleon soldier statue is quite popular with tourists and locals to take photos with.

The ceiling of the St. Peter’s Church

I was in Vienna few times, and somehow each time I missed this church. But not this time. This is one of the shots I try to do in each church, looking straight up. And I don’s see many people taking this type of photos. And they even had the almost same photo shown as a big print directly by the entrance :)

View from the Charles Bridge tower

I already added a photo taken at the opposite side of the Charles Bridge tower. That one was towards the castle, this one is towards the city. I had to push my camera in between stone parts of the tower, to get an unobstructed view. I wanted to have more of the square in the photo, but it was just not possible.

Early morning in Prague

As usually, when I go out to shoot a sunrise in Prague, there is fog there. But I try and try again and again. But until I get a fog-less sunrise, how about this one.

Toledo Cathedral

Today a quick shot of the Toledo cathedral. Would have like to spend more time here, but you know how it is when you go on a trip with non-photographer friends :). They are not always in a mood to wait for you :) So at least I snapped few shots handheld, and the worked out quite nicely. It would be even better it the sky was more interesting that day, but I newer replace the sky, and I don’t to start with it now.
