Scotland, baby! :-)
…or how we discovered the land of whisky, castles, kilts, lochs, bagpipes, and haggis! Edinburgh, Pitlochry, St. Andrews, Isle of Skye, Eilean Donan, Fort William, Glenfinnan, Mallaig with its ferries and faeries, Quiraing landslip and its dramatic views, Uig, the gateway to the Outer isles, overall it was a spectacularly awesome trip. And it feels like we only brushed the surface – I’m definitely going to go back to Scotland sometime. Hopefully not too far from now. :-) Oh, and very special thanks to Peťa, who let us sleep at her place in Edinburgh. :-)
Paris Deserves Another Post
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. :-)
A day on Île-de-France
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. :-)Visiting Oslo (HDR)
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…
Stockholm in HDR
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.
