|  | | | I sure should not have to go driving like an idiot - not so fast (I was on the road with 'just' 700 000km driven MB diesel from early '80s) but because of bad money situation - around the countryside... But after all I am really happy that I did. I did found two new place. Sadly I had too less time to check both of 'em, but even other (that better one) I managed to photo. Anyway I must get back to there soon, it was maybe most beautiful UE place I've ever been, and there still lot to see. But that's for this diary kind of shit, so to the photos we go:
Nature - taking over (HDR):
For the empty windows:
For the gone ones (HDR):
Light of a day... Fading away... Slowly:
Look to the past:
Dying away, proudly:
Under the coming storm (HDR):
Against the wind (HDR):

Wishing it was a matter of car keys. Rolling change to pay for the plane ticket there. Such pretty places. "sigh" maybe someday if Wolfheart and his lady would show me around.
A mirage is not an optical illusion. It is a real phenomenon, and one can take photographs of it. The interpretation of the image, however, is up to the fantasy of the human mind.

| | | | Welcome to southern Finland, I'll try to reserve few beers, not to drink them all alone, cheers (Marston's Strong Pale Ale still tastes very good)! 
Only thing that burns in my head now is that there are so damned much those 'four number roads' and not enough money... Who knows what hidden treasures there still are waiting for someone to come... Before demolition - by the human or the time.

| | | | I wish I had time and money to just drive around and enjoy the picturesque Finnish countryside. With the current gas prices and my car I'd need to win the national lottery on saturday (3M€ this week) to afford exploring all those small four-numbered roads Wolfheart mentioned. At the moment I just have to stick with the aerial images...
The funny thing is that Southern Finland is supposed to be the place to which people move from other parts of the country. I wonder what kind of hidden treasures one could find from the rural roads in the quiet villages in the cold North...

| | | | Thats it for that sweet 'wait until autumn goes more colorful and you get your car fixed' shit; yesterday I was 'back at the funny farm'. And I am happy that I did - coming back I did find, once again, one new abandoned house. But here are more from this location.

A real photographer doesn't photoshop their work with post-processing. Maybe to change a little bit of contrast and brightness. But when you're getting into HDR merging and using a brush, clone tool, blur tool, it is considered graphic designing, not PHOTOGRAPHY. Buy an HDR lens.

I understand your point, but: do you appreciate hdr's with film? Because hdr is really old thing and it have been used even before digital time. And other way I can't see much of Photoshopping in my hdr-creation, because I usually use Photomatix pro, no Photoshop at all with my hdr's (except those with wich I think I can get more mood by using some things).

I really appreciate your living in the old times. You probably appreciate all those photos with sloping horizon etc.? And I really would like to hear your opinion to that what do you think about old times film creationing - in old times photographers did get those photos 'to this world' in darkroom, and you must know that there can be done lot to photos too.
I myself see hdr as an possible. I shoot with just ordinary digicompact (I don't even dream of expensive camera system (and I don't need them and I put my money to beer or something nice more likely)), so hdr is just way to get more tone to my photos, get over my camera's limitations, get more closer to what I've seen.
Anyway I admit that too that last year I have became to use Photoshop to get 'unreal photos' too, because I have became to think that sometimes mood can be the word.
Anyway, these are 'matter of taste' cases, so this can be fight forever (which probably would be great stupidism), so let's say we are both right and lets laugh to each other where ever we are.
By the way: is there really hdr-lenses??? I really like to know how it works, because hdr is multiexposure, I mean putting more than one photo with different exposures to one. I really like to know how does hdr-lense work.
