Chinatown gifts
Image by Jim Nix / Nomadic Pursuits
Chinatown in San Francisco, CA is such an interesting place. I spent a good while there, wandering around, poking my head into shops and down random alleys. This shot was just something that caught my eye, so I thought I would share and hope everyone is having a great day!

Night in San Francisco

Night in San Francisco
Image by Jim Nix / Nomadic Pursuits
Just a simple long exposure. I got this while walking around downtown San Francisco one evening. I like all the reflected lights and the colors. The clock tower off to the left is The Ferry Building, which I have posted several photos of. The entire area downtown is just so great for photography. I look forward to heading back out there soon!

Not a very colorful sunset
Image by Miroslav Petrasko (blog.hdrshooter.net)
Comparing to my recent photos, this one is not so colorful. But as the sunset when I took it wasn't colorful at all, I had to add a lot of saturation. For those interested, this is the Liberty bridge in Budapest

Union Station, Kansas City
Image by Jim Nix / Nomadic Pursuits
I spent the early part of this week in Kansas City, and after hours had some free time to shoot around the downtown area quite a bit. It's really nice. I hadn't been to KC in many years, and never with a camera. One of the first places I went off to explore was their Union Station, an updated and renovated train station downtown. It's fabulous. I love places like this. Since it was about 6pm, there weren't very many folks inside, which is good for me. I only had to wait for the occasional person that was wandering around to wander back out of my way. I spent a lot of time in and around Union Station, shooting architectural shots like this, as well as checking out some of the trains out back. It was awesome and I am looking forward to processing some more shots! I took about 400 shots in KC! In this shot, I really like the orange glow of the large clock in the distance.
This is a 7 exposure HDR taken at f/14, with exposures ranging from -4 to +2. They were merged in Photomatix to create the HDR file, and then I made some adjustments in PSE, Topaz Adjust, and Aperture. Topaz Adjust allowed me to bring out some of the details and textures that you see here. Enjoy! Look for more KC shots coming soon!

Cherish the silence
Image by Jim Nix / Nomadic Pursuits
I frequently find myself at this bridge when I am downtown in Austin with camera in hand. In this case, I had it to myself. It was my bridge, at least for some quiet moments. There is a silence that exists in busy towns, but you can only find it when you are up and moving about early on a weekend. I never seem to experience it at other times - it's elusive like that. I was happy to find it the morning I took this shot. Usually Lady Bird Lake is full of folks in boats of one sort or another, but not on this morning. It was weird, but I liked it.

Soldiers and Sailors
Image by Jim Nix / Nomadic Pursuits
I took a trip to Indianapolis not too long ago, and was happy to return there for the first time in over a decade. It’s a nice town. I like it. There are a lot of interesting places to shoot there, like Monument Circle for example. It’s a huge circle in the center of town and in the middle of it sits this wondrous (and huge!) monument and fountain. From the web:
The Indiana Soldiers' and Sailors' Monument is a 284 ft 6 in tall neoclassical monument in the center of Indianapolis, Indiana that was designed by German architect Bruno Schmitz and completed in 1901. The monument was erected to honor Hoosiers who were veterans of the American Revolution, territorial conflicts that partially led up to the War of 1812, the Mexican-American War, the US Civil War, and the Spanish American War.
So, I took lots of shots from various spots, and could never get it all in one view, so I opted to piece it up and HDR it from a few different angles. I will drop those in sometimes and hope you enjoy them! Thanks for stopping by!

'Sandcastle in the Desert', India, Jaisalmer, Sunset
Image by WanderingtheWorld (www.LostManProject.com)
Portfolio | Travel Blog | Tumblr | Youtube |Contact Me
Below is an excerpt from my travel blog. Cheers.
Like a sandcastle in the Thar desert, the old and decaying fort of Jaisalmer still stands proud over its people. Rightfully nicknamed the 'golden city', this desert outpost is within 30 km of the India/Pakistan border. Over the centuries this fort has seen many battles as the Hindi kingdoms to the east fought to secure this important city from Islamic threat from Pakistan and the Persian areas.
Jaisalmer is hot and muggy city. From the hours of 11AM to 4PM very little can be done. The heat rises to 110-115 degrees and most people run for cover. Evidence of India's strained infrastructure is very present here. Electricity is interrupted daily and most establishments are forced to have generators as a result. This is true in most Indian cities. It's not easy to find a cool spot around midday when the electricity goes out. This breezy hill, pictured here provides some relief from the heat. The 'golden city' becomes a fairy tale city around sunset capturing the sun's golden rays.

Testing the Promote
Image by Miroslav Petrasko (blog.hdrshooter.net)
I have the Promote remote for some time now and I have been testing it quite a lot. And i decided to try it on one of my favorite views in Bratislava, the view of the New Bridge. I did 7 shots here. I could use even more, as still there are few overexposed areas. But still, I'm very impressed with the amount of detail you can get when using more than 3 shots.

Soft blue colors on the Apollo bridge
Image by Miroslav Petrasko (blog.hdrshooter.net)
I think I'm starting to be too critical of myself. I finished this photo already had it uploaded, when I notices a whiter area around the bridge. Probably because I added a little glow. First I tried to edit it out, but could not get the result I wanted, so I started once more. And with the second try, I'm satisfied :)
Also I'm very happy that I started to use a bubble level on my camera. I have the horizon nice and leveled, even if there are distortion in my photo. It really make it easier.

Below is an excerpt from my travel blog. Cheers.
I'm not sure why they call this place Burnt Cove, but I have a hunch it's because of the great sunsets this west facing cove gets every night. With the Maine coastal landscape in the background, lobster boats scattered throughout the cove and a bright sun setting to the west, the place makes the perfect setting for a Maine sunset.

Castle entrance
Image by Miroslav Petrasko (blog.hdrshooter.net)
Always when I tried to take a photo of this entrance, I had people in my shot. So in the end I decided to go there at 4:30 in the morning. What I didn't know is that the metro in Budapest does not run so early (better said, the line I needed) so I had a nice 30 minute walk at 4 in the morning through the city. The city looks really different at that time (and a little scary :) )

Lock and Dam 14 Photographers
Image by w4nd3rl0st (InspiredinDesMoines)
A lot of people are wondering what to expect at Lock and Dam 14 when they go to shoot the eagles. This picture is a typical Saturday afternoon along the railing.
Parking: The parking lot (and pit toilets) are right next to where you are going to shoot. It's free to park, and there is plenty of it.
Equipment: Bring the longest lens you have. I use a 100-400, but there are 500 and 600mm lenses everywhere. 70-200 is the shortest I would recommend.
Weather: The best time to visit Lock and Dam 14 is in the winter time (for eagles). The colder the better, the more ice on the river the better. I would suggest visiting between mid-December and early March. A westerly wind helps keep the birds flying towards you (instead of away from you). Don't forget that the site faces east; afternoon and evening shots are much better than morning because the sun is behind you.
I've written a longer article at Out of Chicago Blog. It includes recommended settings, food ideas and more. So bring a friend (or 50 of them) and have some fun. It's definitely worth it.

'Mighty Lower Falls', United States, Wyoming, Yellowstone, Lower Falls

Below is an excerpt from my travel blog. Cheers.
The lighting was not perfect on this particular day in Yellowstone but standing in front of the Lower Falls in Wyoming's Yellowstone National Park is breathtaking.
Yellowstone is an amazing place with a variety of different types of scenery. I will say however, that it feels a bit like Disneyland. Roads are busy in the park with a car in front of you and to the rear. I laughed when a friend compared it to 'Mr. Toad's Wild Ride'. Every major landmark in Yellowstone is accessible by car and you don't have to hike all that far into anywhere to get an amazing view such as the one pictured above. It is a wonderful park, however, and its touristy feel shouldn't deter anyone from seeing this spectacular park.
