Castle by the bridge
This is my favorite place from where to take photos of the Bratislava castle. And I have never seen anyone taking photos from there :)

Brackets
I was editing this photo, and as I had the photos opened in Photoshop, I decided to share them :). So just for comparison, these are the original brackets of todays photo:
Some Photomatix info: Strength 70, Saturation 59, Luminosity 6.7, Microcontrast 10.0, Smoothing 0.0, Micro-smoothing 0.4, all other at default. I also masked back parts of the clouds, added a lot of contrast an sharpness and played with the colors a little.
Theatine Church in Munich
I spend few hours in Munich, Germany last year. The whole way there and the whole way from there, the sky was great. But when I was in the city, most of the time it was just grey. This was one of those rare moments, when it broke up to show a little blue sky.
The orange on the church came out really oversaturated, so I toned it down quite a lot. Let’s hope it was enough. I also removed a lot of ghosting on the people with photomatix. It actually work really well :)

All the people on the Karl’s Bridge
This is the view of the Karl’s Bridge from the top of the Petrin tower. You should bring a nice zoom lens when you go there :). From this point you can really see how much people are on the bridge. It’s really a lot :). This is one of those photos, where I would love to have a camera with more megapixels. There is so much detail lost in this photo.

Valley of Death
Or sometimes called Death Valley. I think that it’s quite a sad name for such a lovely place. But since it’s named like this because of all the soldiers that died there in WWII, so it’s quite fitting. If you look closer at the photo, you can see three tanks scattered around the scenery (there are few more in the surrounding area). These are a permanent exhibition in this area.

St. Martin’s Church
You have to love all the detail HDR processing can pull out from a photo :) All the churches look so wonderful.
