I wanted to try the ND filter more, so I went to one of the few overpasses above a busy road in Bratislava. But as it was a weekend, and there were not enough cars, when I used the ND filter, the road looked empty. So in the end I took this shot without the ND filter.
This is a manual blend from 4 shots (I took 5 bud had no real use for the darkest shot). Photo taken from a pedestrian walkway near the Aupark Shopping center in Bratislava
I went out to do a little shooting today, even as the weather was not so nice. And as I was going around this place, I noticed that the surface of Danube is quite low, compared to the normal state, and all this rocks which are usually under water, were visible. So I wen down to take some photos. Actually my biggest reason for going out today, was to try out the Think Tank bag. I’m traveling soon and I wanted to try it out before that. And I have to say, I’m quite surprised how well it works. Will have to write some short review on it later on :)
This is a manual blend from 6 shots. It’s very funny to edit in 16bit colors, when my monitor can’t really show 16bit colors (most monitors can’t). So I see so much color bending in the photo, until I export it.
Of course while taking photos around the River park, I took one also of the River park, or at least a part I could fit into one photo. You can actually see the bonsai photo from the photo I posted yesterday, in the bottom left of this photos.
Manual blend from 5 shots, mostly to darken the very bright areas in the bottom left and brighten the dark areas in bottom right.
I like bonsai trees, too bad the ones I try to grow in my flat never last that long. But this one in front of the River park is really nice. I actually took a photo of it few years ago, when they first planted it there, and it was the first photo I sold to be used for promotional purposes :)
Manual blend from 7 shots, mostly to darken the parts which are brightened by all the lights in the area.
You would think that finding a statue like this in Bratislava would surprise me, but not really. As modern art in Bratislava goes, this is quite normal :) I took this photo by River park. I haven’t been there in a long time so I went there today, to look whats new there. And they have few new very cool statues.
This is a manual blend from 4 shots, used mostly to darken the light reflections on the statue (but I could have used a more underexposed photo)
