Google+

Here is my google+ profile, if any of you already have it, feel free to add me :). It looks that it will be a very interesting place to share photos and other stuff :)

Three is a lucky number

This was a great week on Flickr. First the photo Letting off steam, then Tension and now also Reflected Fireworks got into Explore selection. They reached positions 383, 161 and the last one 47 :). Thank you very much to everyone who viewed my photos there, commented on them and added them to favorites :) Without you I would never got into Explore :)

Second try for a Cinemagraph

I really like cinemagraphs. That’s why I will try to create more of them :) Since until now I only took three different videos, I don’t really have much to choose from :) (my camera has no video mode). So here is another one, also taken at the Rendez gathering last Sunday.

I have tried different versions of this one, a B&W and a one where they booth moved their heads. But that was too much. I like when the movement is not so dominant, more subtle. So I also added longer times between the animations, so sometimes there is no movement at all.

I have also found this very nice blog which specializes only in cinemagraphs. Definetly worth a visit. It can be found on this address http://www.cinemagra.ph/

Golden lake

This is one of the photos I took in the park by the Chateau in Lednice. The weather was beautiful, there was no wind, perfect conditions for taking HDR photos :)

Cinemagraph

For some time I have been looking at cinemagraphs, and wanted to try one for myself. I have quite a problem with this, as my camera can’t shoot any video. But this time, I went shooting with a friend, who borrowed me his :). So this is my absolutely first try for a cinemagraph. I have never done this before :)

I quite like it :). I don’t think it’s the best, but passable :). I probably should have selected a simpler one to start with, but maybe next time :). Video taken with Canon sx20, edited using Photoshop, based on tutorial found here.

Letting off steam

There was a gathering of historical trains in Bratislava this weekend (called Rendez), so I had to go there to take few shots. This was my favorite, from all the trains there :). And even the weather played along nicely, with the clouds breaking up few minutes after I arrived there :)
