Trakai III

A panoramic capture of the mist descending over the castle at Trakai, including both wooden bridges and the moon. Four lots of three exposure images (12 shots in total), merged using Hugin, tonemapped in Photomatix and final touch up in Adobe Lightroom and GIMP.

Trakai I

The castle found on an island surrounded by frozen lakes in Trakia, Lithuania. The locals cleared a path on the frozen lake, however, this was more like an slippery icy walkway of death! A three exposure HDR image processed using Photomatix and Adobe Lightroom.

Ghent V

I originally uploaded a shot of the "Gerard De Duivelsteen" (a castle in Ghent) that didn't include the full reflection (here), due to not having a wide enough angle lens. Luckily I captured a few shots with a view to stitching them together to give the full view. After an eight month wait here is the finished product. Three HDR images each comprising of three exposures (nine images total) were processed using Photomatix. The resulting three HDR images were stitched together using Hugin, with final touch up being performed in Adobe Lightroom.

Ghent I

Taken during my brief tour of Belgium. If only I had that wide angle lens then I could have got the full reflection in!
