Dear Earthling,Thanks for clicking a commendable image of the planet we are about to invade soon!After we have destroyed everything on planet Earth – we shall see these pictures and try to copy on our planet – [alien giggle] – The Foxyland!

Entering the Old Castle in Banska Stiavnica

I always tell myself to take the tripod everywhere with me. And still there are instances when I don’t do it, and I always regret it. So this photo was taken only handheld. The speed of the 7D really helped here, as it can take the shots so quick after each other. But the shots from the other side of the castle (in the shadow) are just bad.

Explore Front page

I would never thought, that the photo I took from my balcony will get onto Flickr Explore front page :). But it did :)

Entrance

So today I have a photo of the entrance to the Primate’s palace in Bratislava. As I took it at night, the HDR was really yellow, so I decided to remove a lot from the yellow color, giving it a more daily look :)

The Mystery of the Blue Train

That’s the book I’m currently reading by Agatha Christie. And in the middle of editing this photo I noticed, that this is also a blue train. What a coincidence :). I took this photo last summer in Bratislava at a train gathering Rendez. I went for a little different look here. This is also my first HDR in which I haven’t used Photomatix. I used Oloneo HDR software here.

Galvaniho Business Center

Two weeks without taking any photos and I’m already feeling like a junkie without a drug :). So I at least went to the Galvaniho Business Center to take few night shots. It’s only like 5 minute walk from my flat :)

Fortification

A view of the fortification of the Bzovik monastery form the inside. As you can see, it’s not the safest place, with a sign warning of falling bricks at the entrance. Luckily, I had no such problems :)
