After a long time I have again updated the selection of my HDR desktop wallpapers with 3 new ones. Head over to the wallpaper page to check them out.
According to wikipedia, Kosice was the first town in Europe to be granted its own coat of arms. And this is the statue representing it in the middle of the town.
I have quite the luck for clear skies during the blue hour. It happens almost each time I take photos during that time of the day.
This is one of the photos I took with the Canon 450D and used only 3 brackets. You really can see the difference compared to a 5D mark II photo. Especially when editing. There is so much more noise and less sharpness. The full frame camera is really worth it :)
Another fountain on the Main Street in Kosice. I posted a photo of the Singing fountain few days ago and this one is on the other side of the State theater. I really wanted to take a night shot of this, as you can see, the sunset was not so nice. But they turned it off few minutes after this photo was taken, so no luck there.
I did a little video, about how to take brackets for HDR photos with the help of the Magic Lantern firmware. So for the ones who are interested in this, here it is :)
You can find more about this firmware here http://magiclantern.wikia.com
One from the times that I only took 3 brackets. I really miss one more brighter exposure, to have a nice detail in the foreground. But still the sky looks great :)
As usually, the day I stayed at home there were the most beautiful clouds during the sunset, and the day I went out shooting, they were none. At least the colors were nice :)
