We went to Antwerp today, for some shopping. We had a very nice day of spending money, waiting by dressing rooms and taking pictures. This is an HDR of 7 exposures from one RAW base file. I'll definitely go back with my tripod to do it over properly some day :-).
I was walking in the city some time ago and saw this one standing chained to a pole. It reminded me of the solex of a friend when I was 15 or so, so I just had to take the picture. :-)
This one was also taken when we went to the castle of Gaasbeek with my brother and his girlfriend. As I've said, it was in mid autumn so these guys were popping up everywhere.
I took this one on our stay in center parks as well. It was taken in the entrance to the topical swimming pool thingy they had there.
Couldn't come up with a witty title for todays post.
Will you look at that! Seriously! That was the view from our balcony this evening around 1030h.
Yup we beat Romania by 2-0! I know, "You should have given them the win..." No we shouldn't have :-) we already played with most of the top players on the bench so nah! :-) Anyway, back to the business of this blog. As I've said earlier the reason I haven't posted the last couple of days is that I was in Romania for the baptism of our godchild. I had a really great time! Lots of drink, food and dance :-). Ow yeah, this is her, isn't she gorgeous? :-)
I'm in ITIL training at the moment, so I haven't had the time to edit a new picture. I've decided to post one I've done some time ago, which is also on my deviantart profile. It's my first HDR render I've done. I've composed it of nine different exposures to get this result. Hope you like the result!
Well, I managed to keep posting for a month now and must say it's not quite so difficult as I'd expected at first. As this is the first month of it's existence, I thought some fireworks would be in order, so here you are! Happy birthday blog!
This one was take on the last trip we made to Norway. We had bad luck with the weather, it was misty the whole stay, but while that was a bit sad, it made for some very nice pictures and beautiful scenery as the mist would freeze to the trees and bushes everywhere.
From the same trip to Paris. In the evening, we went to Mont martre and the Sacré Coeur. We watched the sunset over Paris and I took this, among many other pictures. We really had an amazing day in this beautiful city and we will definitely be going back there!
On May the first 2007 I took Iuliana to Paris as a surprise. We had a really great time, the weather was beautiful and we were sorry we had to leave. I took this picture while we were on the bateaubus, as it says, a bus boat. I stuck my camera out of the window and snapped. I'm happy with the result. I think the quirky angle adds to it.
Yup, this is from the same shoot I did around the corner. I've always wanted to do one of these shots from the ground level up, and although not entirely what I was aiming for as there were just too many tulips in the bed, it's pretty close. I'm quite happy with the result. Hope you like it as well!
For Christmas last year, Iuliana an I went to Romania (obviously). We visited her grandmother and round about sunset I went into the garden to take some pictures. This is what I found, sitting in the last bit of sunlight in the icy cold (it was about -15°C).
Yes, another one from my fishing trip with Mihai. This time I thought I'd try a black and white conversion. I'm pretty happy with the result, but I think it could be better. Guess I'll have to experiment some more. :-)
And so another weekend ends. Back to the treadmill tomorrow, but not before my daily post :-)
This one was taken on our first trip to Norway. The sun was just setting over the snow covered hills on the outskirts of Oslo.
