p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Barcelona by night


Hi guys,
I'd like to share my picture of night Barna. I spent there 4 evenings in late April and tried to capture famous touristic points at blue hour and night time. It was not simple at all because I had to move from one point to another very quick not to miss a very short period of blue hour light. The weather was not very cooperative yet it didn't spoil any shot. I traveled around the city on foot and Barna public transport that works pretty flawless so it helped me quite a bit.
I used 3 pieces of equipment e.g. a carbon fiber tripod, a camera and em... yes, you are right, dude... a lens. Canon 6D and EF 24-105/4 L IS is a very capable combo that gives clean and pushable files, the most used focal lengths and overall versatility very important for travel photography. Barcelona trip is not the first time I used such a bundle yet it confirmed its usefulness.
Final pictures you see here are post processed in PS, maybe over processed for someone's taste. I simply like rich colors and try to reproduce them as I memorized the scene. So they agree with the reality not so much

You may additional info about a captured place on its flickr page (a link after a picture).

Thanks guys for your comments that are very welcome.
It's curious to realize that the pics you favoured are different from those I like. May be it is a result of my involvment in producing a picture and not only viewing it. I like #4 for color variety and richness, #6 for the sky and colorful lights of the building, #7 for perspective and mild tonality and #8 for the moment and the kissing couple

I enjoyed these! THANK YOU for taking the time to correct perspective.

Your compositions are interesting, and while your processing is more than "normal," most of them don't slide into the realm of unbelievable.

Thanks for sharing
