This was my contibution to The Luminuarium Exhibit #21. The topic was Elements and I could not resist submitting one of my water droplet photos. This one was taken with HDR techniques and refined via Photoshop. I wanted to have a unusual color composition. I think I got that in nicely. Please check the exhibit here.

A few days ago I visited an old and good friend in Berlin. The moring I was to depart I found out that the same weekend Berlin had its ‘Festival Of Lights’. Which basically means that all the sightseeing hotspots look a little different than usual. Normally we would go out with some other friends and do something pointless but ALL of the other guys where not in town. Of course. My friend and I however took the time to hunt the lights and go up the Reichstag. The architecture up there is pretty fascinating. Only the glass could have been a bit cleaner. So yeah, ultimately a fun time. The ‘Festival…’ was a little underwhelming and could also need a little improvement. Yes there are 2-3 spots where it all really captures your eye… but hey, other cities do that sort of thing every weekend. Berlin nonetheless is always a refreshing experience. Especially at night the city brings out some interesting creatures. Anyway… had a good time there.

After a longer period of quietness due to sickness and business it’s time to add a few new things to the site! Here i used a heavier HDR technique than in my previous macros. This gave it that nice soft look and of course the beautiful colors!

And another try with HDR and my macro series. This time i really dig the focus that came out rather cool here. Hope you dig it as much as i do!

Marea here is made with help of HDR photography techniques. To get the most colour out of every pixel! Really like the underwater like result.

Last weekend i was in Austria, visiting a good friend. His family has a house on a mountain there and we took the chance to have some nice time there. I can say that i never saw as much snow as i did this year. The sight from up there was great. And i really really appreciate a nice landscape vista. The weather wasn’t perfect, except for one day. All of the panoramas were taken that one day. I took the chance and gathered some nice material for my painting archive. It was a lot of fun up there and i hope i’ll get the chance to get back there sooner than later. Thanks to my buddy for the invitation.
Bazora Nights – This is the sight we had a few meters further from our house. One night we risked a look and had this amazing vista in front of us. It was 2:00am and we decided to take this chance. We needed an hour before we got back to the house. It was worth it. Even if it was damn cold that night! This panorama consists of 10 separate shots. All taken with bulb settings and roughly 45 secs of exposure. Photoshop cs4 did a remarkable job stitching these together.
Bazora Days – Here we basically have the daylight sight of the night shot.
Muttersberg One – This was the perfect weather. The only day we had perfect conditions, we went to the ‘Muttersberg’. Surely not the highest mountain on the block, but nontheless a truly amazing sight. 15+ separate shots.
Muttersberg Two – The sun was already going down when i did this one. I really dig the atmospherics that are going on there. A vertical panorama with 5+ separate shots.
Muttersberg Three – Same position as the first two Muttersberg panoramas. Slightly different angle. I tried to capture as much of the sight as possible.

Thought it’s about time for a little photo update. Haven’t had one in ages and i still got tons of things in my archive. It’s hard to sort out which ones are really worth some exposure. But here we have a few selected pics. The Captured Beauy additions have some wallpapers too. Have fun!

From time to time i’m trying myself in more abstract Photography. This picture here is the result of one of such tries. It has a very industrial feel and look to it, which i, for a long time, wasn’t sure about. Now i rediscovered the pic and decided to give it some exposure.

Here we have Kalia. In comparison to all the other Captured Beauty pieces, this one is not so much the eyecatcher. Nonetheless i think it breaks the line very nicely and gives a good addition to this otherwise very colourful series.

This is Maya. I chose this name because of these beautiful fresh colors. I think it fits pretty well there.
