I wonder how other photographers do it. I traveled around for 27 day from the last month, and I have enough for a while. I’m just crazy tired. And to see that some do this all year long. How do they manage? I don’t know :)

For today, I have for you a photo I took few weeks ago in Budapest. It’s a panorama taken from the back side of Hungarian parliament, right in the middle of the blue hour. The panorama is from two exposures, taken with the help of the tilt-shift lens (I just shifted left and right to get two exposures). I also took another two exposures, about two minutes later. Those two were so I can remove moving people from the finished photos. And as you can see none, it worked fine :)

There were no updates from me in a while, as after my last trip to Budapest, I did go for a few day holiday to Zadar in Croatia with my friends. And while there, I did not take my Surface with me, and so I did not work at all (just got a bit burned by the sun :)). But now I’m back home, with the next trip still some time away, so once I have some energy, and will to edit, I will start regular posting again :)

So for today, a photo I edited a while ago, but not posted yet, a blue hour shot of the Inntel hotel in Zaandam near Amsterdam.

While in Lyon, I noticed that they like to use crazy strong lights on the bridge pylons. Almost at every bridge. I had to do 5 exposure here, where mostly I can get by with 1 to 2. And still, I could have gone darker.

For this photo I first did a HDR tone mapped version, but I did not like the result, so I started from scratch again, and manually blended together the exposures to get this result.

If you have not yet checked out my top photography spots in Amsterdam, you can find the whole list here. And this is one of the photos taken from one of the spots listed there :)

The evening I took this the sunset was quite nice, but it was very windy. I took many exposure, as I used a 200mm lens, and I had problems keeping it steady. So I took many shots, hoping at least one will be sharp enough. And I got lucky :)

This is a single exposure, edited in Lightroom and Photoshop.

While taking photos in Zaanse Schans, a fellow photographer Michiel Bruise was doing a video blog. And if you are curious, you can see it here, and few time you can see also me in the video :)

This is a single long exposure, done with a 10 stop ND filter, edited in Lightroom and Photoshop. Would be maybe more interesting if the blades were turning, but one can’t have everything :)
