Liverpool
[dropcap]A[/dropcap]nother location we decided to visit was Liverpool. City brings few interesting things to do such as Albert docks or very impressive Anglican cathedral with roof top access that enables us to see panorama of whole Liverpool, nice place to go if you into cityscape photography. As always I'm attaching a few pictures from that trip.

Studio
It's so much easer to work with passionate model rather than someone who just stiffly stand and stares at lens like deer at the headlights. I know, I'm photographer and I should tell my model exactly what to do but I find it rather difficult task... Maybe one day I will learn how to do it but for now lets hope that every model I'm going to shoot will be as good as Agnieszka was.
Glass and water drops
Some time ago I found big piece of glass in garbage area and thought it would be cool to use it in photography...
Manchester architecture with long exposure
Recently I start toying with ND filters what made me start thinking about my pictures in a completely differed angle. Dramatic clouds always look good in photography but this time I needed them to be moving fast; faster they move, more blur on the sky I would get therefore specific weather is one of the requirement for good long exposure shots.

Today was the day with very favourable weather for kind of look I was after. Even though chance for rain was very high I went on little cycling photo trip. First picture was of Orbis building. Unfortunately they put this big ugly letters on the front that I very much dislike and perhaps black and white version of this image could probably do better job taking attention from it but I decide to go with colour anyway.
Next stop was majestic town hall building where I used similar setting in order to get that look. After this I rode to check if work around library was done what would enable me to photograph it with wide angle lens but although you can enter inside, area around it is still full of fences and road work not done yet. Despite little rain I went for one more stop at the Betham tower, highest structure in Manchester.
In all thouse pictures I've used zomei ND 10 stop ultra thin filterOverall, in spite of giving quite a bit of blue cast I like this piece of glass and in future I will try to exprore new ways of using it.
Iron throne
I always thought that would be cool to seat on iron throne although whoever do that die quickly alter. Photoshop made that happen!
cycling always fun!
Take a train outside the town and enjoy one of many cycling paths around Manchester? What else can one do in such lovely sunny Saturday? We choose Middlewood witch is located few stations behind Stockport. Area is very easy to cross despite some horse mines here and there ;-)
The icon of my home town | Day 17
Undoubtedly this is an icon of Rzeszów, City where I have lived for 22 years. It's perhaps so recognisable because it kinda looks like big stone pussy. At least it's how people see it.
Lake Distric Saturday walk
With such a nice weather as we having now it would feel like sin if I would stay at home. Plans where to go to Scotland but unfortunately this long bank holiday weekend will be very busy and most B&B where already fully booked. Decision made... We going to Lake District!
Thailand, I will miss you...
Sad day to be back from holidays but unfortunately all good things comes to an end soon or later and time to get back to reality. There is something however that cannot be taken away form us... it's our memory and of course photos that has been snapped (unless hard drive failed and we have no backup but that's rather story form some kind of nightmare).
