Decorated ceiling A lot of people from Bratislava will not recognize where was this taken. I wouldn't either a few weeks ago. But now I know, that this is the ceiling in the historical building of the Slovak National Theater. The light in the middle is also very interesting. It's created from hundreds of old style light bulbs and can be switched into different configurations, of which ones are turned on. more info on this photo can be found on my blog http://blog.hdrshooter.net
From top to the bottom It's stunning how much you can get into one shot by using a wide angle lens. I set up my tripod low and close to the seas, so I could have the seats and also the ceiling in a single shot. And it worked. I used the Canon 16-35mm lens here, at 16mm. It created quite a lot of distortion, when you are so close to your subject, but I don't mind. More info on this pohoto on http://blog.hdrshooter.net
Royal Palace Gate Too bad you can't take photos inside the palace, so here is one from outside :) But it was nice of them, that in the evening, you don't have to pay for entrance. (if you are from the EU that is :) ) Get more info about this photo on my blog http://blog.hdrshooter.net
