The road through the Alps

With all the photos I edited over the years, I still prefer the sunset and blue hour shots to the daytime ones. I just am never really happy with the results I get in the daytime. I always feel like I’m missing something. But what can I do, other than try and try again, until I get to what I like :)

This is one of the shots I took at the Grossglockner High Alpine Road in Austria, sometime in the middle of 2015. It’s a single exposure, edited in Photoshop.

Blue hour at the canals in Amsterdam

Last week, I spend only one evening in Amsterdam, and so I did not take that many photos. I was staying close to this spot (first one on the Top spots list), so I decided to go there. I took only few shots, during the blue hour, as I was quite tired from the very busy previous day. But from those there are few nice.

So here is one. This is a two shot vertorama, each one from three exposures. I used a brighter one to get the water and a darker one for the sky.

Early morning at the Erasmus Bridge in Rotterdam

I spend around half a day in Rotterdam last week, and while the weather during the day was quite ugly, the morning blue hour was quite nice. But just the blue hour, as the sun did not came from behind the thick clouds at all.

So I did a little walk around the Erasmus Bridge and got few shots. I was really happy that I decided to do so, as soon after the sunrise it started raining, and I did not get much afterwards. But I did walk around the center of the city, so I seen a lot of great spots that will really require a revisit, probably very soon :)

Cross over the Liberty bridge

One of my favorite photo locations in Budapest is the cross on the hill above the Liberty bridge. And if you go there, and go a bit more further up the hill, you will get this view. You can even walk further up, but you don’s see much due to the trees and it get quite steep anyway :)

This is a blend from three shots, done in Photoshop.

Hidden rock under the SNP bridge

I feel like I have not posted a photo from Bratislava in a while, so here is one :) This is a view from under the SNP bridge. You can get here quite easily, as there are stairs going down close by. But it’s only possible when the level of Danube is quite low. And also this rock in the middle, is only visible when the water is really low.
