Street in Tranava
I have quite the luck for clear skies during the blue hour. It happens almost each time I take photos during that time of the day.
Church of St. Nicolas

As all photographers, I prefer to take my photos around sunset. But sometime, especially during winter months, the sunsets are quite boring. With a clear sky, they look mostly grey. So what I do, is I wait for the blue hour. Even with a clear sky, the blue is really stunning.

Plaza de la Villa

There are so many beautiful places in Madrid. I think I could spend weeks and months just taking more and more photos :)

Blue hour in Trnava

It looked that I will have a ugly grey sky, but right around sunset the sky cleared nicely. This photo is from Trnava, a city around 30 minutes drive from Bratislava. It quite strange that I haven't been there before, as I have passed around it maybe 100 times.

In this photo the St.Mikulas Church in Trnava.

Blue hour in Bardejov

Another one from Bardejov. I was hoping to take a night shot from the tower, but  they close the tower at night. So no luck there....

Christmas tree in Bardejov

I didn't take that many photos during Christmas, but I took some. This is the Christmas tree in the middle of Bardejov. There is a button on it, which when pushed, it starts playing Christmas music. And as it was playing all the time, it is quite popular :)

Hodza Square

One more blue hour shot from center of Bratislava. I actually went inside the fountain, to take few show with reflections from the water puddles :)

Bratislava in blue

Blue hour is sometimes really blue :). Not always the most beautiful shade of blue, but I can live with that. This photo was taken from the park by the Bratislava Castle, sometime in the summer of 2010.

Yellow lights

I have a lot of old photos of the Old Bridge and from time to time I edit one of them.  Each time I'm quiet amazed how differently the resulting photo looks compared to the ones I edited only a few months ago. As the processing steps change and I learn new techniques, so the resulting images change.
