Early in the morning

Early in the morning you can really get some great shots. And I even wrote and article long time ago, on why you should take photo in the morning. To tell the truth, I’m also sometime lazy to get up. But the more I do, the better photos I get :)

Very hot day in Portugal

I’m somehow tired this weekend. Not sure it’s the weather or someting, but I just feel like sleeping. So not much to say about today’s photo, just that it was taken during summer in Portugal at the Quinta da Roeda. It was over 40 degrees Cecilius outside when I took it, and I have no idea how I survived that heat.

This is a three shot panorama, combined in Lightroom, edited in Photoshop.

In the distance

And another fog photo. It was actually funny when we arrived to this spot. Fist time we were to this locations, and we could not find where the mountains were. You just could not see anything. Luckily, after a hour or so, the fog went down a bit, and we found them :)

Hviezdoslav in the snow – Plotagraph

I did not know that, with a Plotagraph Pro you can also add particles to photos. Stuff like snow, rain or flowers. It is very easy and just looks great. The only problem with this is, that you can’t compress the resulting video as much as other Plotagraphs. There is just too much movement for that. But still I thought I share one with you :)

This is the Hviezdoslav statue in Bratislava. This snowy photo really fits to this heavy snow animation, as it really was like that that day. I’m still not 100% sure about how I animated the background, but after over 50 different tries, I ended with this one. Hope you like it.

The autoplay on this one is dissabled, so it does not load all the time, so if you want to see it, hit play.

(if you use an older web browser, you may only see a static image, if you are on a mobile, please hit the play button to see the Plotagraph in motion)
