It is well known that photographer’s best friend is the [Delete] key. Unless they have a Mac, that is, in which case they are screwed. ;-) But if you can’t force yourself to delete enough of them, that’s when you have to resort to writing multiple posts from a single shoot… still, it’s very true that most of my pictures suck, as do everyone else’s, so let’s hope I didn’t overdo it. :-)

When the Rock’n'Roll train arrived at Gare de l’Est Friday around noon, we only had two and a half days to get back home. Even though, fortunately, I’ve been to Paris before, it was so little it was intimidating. To make things even worse, we lost all of Friday to organisational issues, due to problems with the tickets and difficulties with accommodation, and as we wanted to spend most of Sunday in Strasbourg, all we had left was not much ‒ a single day.
This is a pretty rare photo… those of you familiar with traffic around the Arc surely know why. :-)

I haven’t been to Scandinavia for a month and, well, I missed that place enough to get back there. This time it was Oslo, made easier and cheaper by the fact that all it took to persuade Zdeněk to let us stay at his place, were twelve bottles of booze. The weather on Saturday was as Scandinavian as it gets, so all I could do to prevent my shots from being dull and boring was resorting to HDR yet again…

The light was mostly so good there wasn’t much need for experimenting, but I still couldn’t resist firing off a few bracketed shots for HDR… I like a few, you judge for yourself. I admit the feel is somewhat unrealistic, which anyone may or may not appreciate.

…at least this year. Although there will be some random people shots up later. :-) Enjoy!

And there’s another batch coming your way. No blah blah today, whatever, most of you don’t read my rants anyway. ;-) These are all from the Tower and around. We didn’t go in, as it was crowded and expensive, and I’d been there before, but it was a nice walk nonetheless.

For those very few hard-core enough to venture beyond LSD, there is a special treat in London. Posing as one of the world’s most überbest universities, only its name suggests that there’s more to LSE than they would like us to know. ;-)
The preliminary results of my espionage mission on this target were pretty confusing, as it seemed that they managed to hide this secret very well, while at the same time exhibiting rather lax security allowing me to sneak into their enormous library, or freely eat at their cantina. :-)
This post is mostly here for my dearest, to whom I’ve promised to take a few shots of the campus, as well as for our friends from the LSE Summer School 2008. So go ahead and shed a tear of nostalgy, or perhaps two. Miss the place?

My little treasure obviously got addicted to schoolwork after getting her degree, so she decided to attend the LSE summer school in London. As I would have probably died of sorrow back here alone, I had to come visit her for at least a while. Besides, it was a great opportunity to get back to my beloved London, stay at her place for cheap, and breathe in international student’s life for one more time.
