I’m a bit more busy this weekend, with also being a little sick, so there will be no new photos or articles in the next few days, and I will only be reposting few of my older photos.
So for today, a shot of the singing fountain in Kosice, in eastern Slovakia.
You would not believe how many dust spots I had to remove from this photo :) But the reason is simple. My ND filter is in a horrible condition, since my trip to Paris few years ago (not the last one), when while I was moving to a new location, the ND filter got lose from the lens, and feel onto a road. While the glass did not brake, it did get damaged, and can’t really be fully cleaned anymore. But it does work, even if I should think of a replacement soon. And I think I will also do a post about how to remove dust spots in Photoshop, maybe tomorrow :)

When I shoot fireworks, I really like to plan it beforehand. Know when they are, where and have an exact spot, and composition in mind. This time, in this photo I took earlier this year, I was absolutely not prepared. I was at the Slavin memorial to take a few shots of the city, when fireworks above the castle started. It was quite a surprise. At the last minute I managed to get a usable view, and capture at least few shots. And here is one of them.
This is a single exposure, edited in Lightroom and Photoshop.

Here is one more shot from yesterdays All Saints Day, and until next year, this is the last shot from a cemetery I will post. It does look interesting with all the different lights, but still a bit depressing over time.
