Stunning clouds over Prague

What do you think? Did I use tone-mapping or manual blending here? I’m just curious.. if someone can see the difference in my photos :) Everyone who visit my blog regularly already noticed that I’m experimenting with new techniques of combining photos recently. And so a lot of my recent photos were manually blended in Photoshop, but there were still tone-mapped HDRs in between them. So what do you think? Which one is this? :)

This is a photo from Prague, taken form the Old town hall tower. For me,the clouds were a big surprise, as the only appeared right after the sunset. It was a pleasant surprise :)

New article for HDR one

I wrote another article for the HDR One online magazine. This time it all about how to capture fireworks shot. So if you like to see how I got all those fireworks shot during New Year, check out this article :)

Something warmer

After all those winter panoramas, I just had to edit something a little warmer :) Not much to say here :)

How about another panorama today. If you have been on the spot, from which I took the one I posted yesterday and turned around, you would see this. This is a suburb of Bratislava, called Petrzalka. This is a 61Mpix photo, manually blended in Photoshop.

I have again included a zoomable version, so just continue to the full post and check it out :)

One of my goals for this year, is trying to make a 1 Gigapixel photo. Just for fun :) The biggest one I did until now was 200Mpix. The photo I’m including here today is a little smaller. Only 102Mpix. Still it’s so huge. After I finished it, I probably spend another hour just looking it over in the full resolution, trying to identify everything I can see in it :)

Colorful windows

I spend the whole weekend shooting and editing panoramas :) But so I just don’t post another panorama I created this HDR, from a photo I took in the Matthias church in Budapest :)
