Camera collection

This probably happens to every photographer. Once you start taking more and more photos, you start to like all these beautiful old cameras more and more. Until now I only bought some, haven’t tried to take any photos with them. But as they are all functional, I think I will do that sooner or later :)

Path around the Bojnice Castle

The photo of Bojnice castle I posted a week ago is currently the most popular of my photos. It’s not really a big surprise for me as the castle looks really like something from a fairy-tale. So here is another one. I only took 2 steps back, to get a completely different composition :)

I had to do two bracket series for this shot. The +2EV photo was just not enough to get any detail in the wall in the foreground. There were just no lights there. So in the end I took one classic series, with a low iso to get the bright areas and than a second series, where I changed the iso to 1600 and did a +0 to +4 series, to get detail in all the dark areas. And with this setup, the lights of a nearby road were enough to brighten the wall.

4000 Facebook fans

Today I reached another milestone on my Facebook page :) After slowly going up, the number of fans just broke the 4000 mark. Now of to the next milestone :)

Panorama from London

This is my favorite photo I took while I was in London. Despite the ugly weather, for a moment the light was right and I took the shots for this panorama. And as you probably noticed, it’s also the photo I currently use for the header of this blog :)

This is a three shots panorama, all shots blended from 5 exposures. Taken from the Tower Bridge in London.

My favorite photography spots in Prague

One of the most popular parts of this blog is the Top 5 photography spots in Prague page. So if you are planing to visit Prague and need some tips, check it out.

Blue hour by the Charles Bridge

Blue hour is definitively my favorite time to shoot. Sunset is nice, but the contrast between the warm and cold colors you can get during the blue hour is very hard to beat. And I really like that contrast.

Colorful Tower Bridge

You have probably noticed that I really like taking photos of bridges and as the Tower Bridge is such a great looking bridge, I took a lot of photos of it :)
