Welcome to my new blog

Hope you like it here. After two years I’m leaving wordpress.com in favor of a self hosted wordpress site. This gives me the oportunity to add more stuff to the page, and have it more “my way”.

As you can see, I selected a new theme for this blog. I think its more cleaner than the old one and  showcases the photos much more. It’s not wider than the old one, but it has bigger photos.  If you look over the page, you will see, that there is less info by the photos, but don’t worry. If you view a full post you will see  the detailed information on used gear and my camera settings. Each post now also includes a map, with the location, where the photo was taken.

And don’t forget my favorite new feature, the before/after comparison. Each post in this category includes a comparison between the normal photo (0EV exposure) and my final HDR. Just select the big before/after button on the right, to see which posts include this comparison.

I’m still working on the new site, so there will be more changes as I add them. If you find anything that is not working, please let me know.

Thank you for all your visits, comments and support, I hope you all like this new blog :) 

The old blog (hdrshooter.wordpress.com) will be updated for the next few days, and after that I will turn on a redirect, so it points to the this one.

Testing the Promote

I have the Promote remote for a week now and I have been testing it quite a lot. And i decided to try it on one of my favorite views in Bratislava, the view of the New Bridge. I did 7 shots here. I could use even more, as still there are few overexposed areas. But still, I’m very impressed with the amount of detail you can get when using more than 3 shots.
