Today I have for you two photos. Better said, a photo and it’s variant. While I was editing this cityscape shot from Bratislava, it reminded me of this reflection tutorial by Jimmy McIntire http://www.throughstrangelenses.com/2013/06/23/cityscape-photoshop-tutorial/ so I just tried out how it looked like. And here is the photo and also the fake reflection variant. It does not even look that bad :)
This is a manual blend from 7 photos.
This is an edit of the above photo in Photoshop.
Comparing to my other photos, this one is not so colorful. But why should every photo be very colorful. When the light is boring, the colors look boring. But as like how the composition and overall sharpness of this photo worked out, I still like it :) Overall photos like this are quite hard to blend. You have a very high difference between the darkest and lightest areas and the transition is very sharp. You have to be very careful so there are no artifacts there, so it all looks natural.
This is a manual blend from 5 shots. Photo taken on the SNP bridge in Bratislava.
Quite a long time since I added a photo of Bratislava. I actually took almost no new photos here for the last two months. But finally yesterday I got out and took some new. Of course I completely forgot, that if I go to the river, there will be many bugs there. And so after few minutes of shooting, I was forced to move, as all the mosquito there were sucking the life from me. Next time I will be prepared :)
This is a HDR from 5 shots, created in Oloneo Photoengine, with another shot manually blended to remove the lens flares.
And another year passed, and again there is a car exhibition in Bratislava. So as each year, I stopped by and took few photos :) You can also see the photo from last year here Girls & Cars 2012
