party!

It is a lovely tradition in Amsterdam to put a matress or two outside a bar window and have the best of both worlds in a good weather! On my last day in Amsterdam I just couldn't resist to ask a company of strangers if I could take a picture... If you are in the picture, say hi ;)

bird house



The cool red birdhouse looked interesting (and not unnoticed by all photobloggers on Amsterdam stroll:)... It was a little too far though and I don't own a telephoto lens so I tried something different. I put a really wide angle on (12mm) and jumped to get a different perspective. Here is what I've got.

The data:

  • Camera: Canon EOS 5D
  • Lens: Sigma 12-14 @ 12mm
  • 1/60
  • f/6.3
  • ISO 1600

After countless shots of girls on bicycles (really, call me crazy but that's all I could see for the first few days:) I had this one and I felt this is the best bicycle shot I had from Amstermdam right after I took it... I didn't have any idea how blurred it would be, but it was late enough and dark enough that it really became just pink mist...

I didn't quite expect black to even be in this series but it just was there - big black barge with a small black bicycle in the garden...

Time to actually post something from Amsterdam...

First things first. For first few days it is just hard not to just see bicycles all around you... And I have a "color coordinated bicycles" series to continue ;) I have to get all colors now... There was blue and red. This is third, purple...

Two weeks of travel + upgraded Picasa can no longer post to my blog. I finally have figured out the software steps to post, so pictures from Amsterdam and from Moscow are coming shortly...

This one is out of order, taken yesterday (10/13) and posted back via time-machine to leave space for the backlog of pictures:)

The portrait is from a series from Lera dance improvisation, very low light many pictures with motion blur, there will be a few more from the series...
