Since Barack Obama and his family visited Yellowstone National Park as well, there was just a little too much Secret Service for me and my camera. ;-) So, I decided to continue my photo safari trip to Banff National Park, where I encountered this beautiful, emerald colored lake. Technique: HDRI made using 3 of the 7 exposures (Smart object method) and then processed in PS with Nik Color Efex and curves.

Castle Mountain is located within Banff National Park in the Canadian Rockies, approximately half-way between Banff and Lake Louise. Visitors usually only pull over to take pictures of wild animals, so they were kind of distracted when they saw me kneeing in the middle of the road, aiming towards Castle Mountain. :-D

One of my first shots from my road trip through Yellowstone National Park. 7-frame HDR, processed with Dynamic Photo HDR and Photoshop. August, 2009.

The composition of the cosmos. Created entirely in Photoshop CS4. Enjoy!

Actually, Paris is called "The city of lights" - however, I simply can't think of a more suitable title for this awesome city!

Spring is in the air! Taken in Green Park, London.

Another shot from Rockefeller Center's terrace in New York City, November 2008. Enjoy!

The hills in the background have caught my attention already long time ago, however either time or weather wasn't right. Easter break gave me the opportunity to tick it off my list. Enjoy!

Summer certainly flew by and while I occasionally wish we had just one more month to squeeze in, I realized that since my fingers are almost frozen, autumn definitely arrived! P.S. Meanwhile it's Winter!
