Vždycky se tak nějak snažím, aby fotky v mém článku nějak tématicky souvisely. No a dneska jsem zjistil, že mám v archívu za letošní léto nějak moc reklamních poutačů.Proč člověk fotí reklamní poutače? Odpovím protiotázkou: proč člověk fotí lesní cesty, mouchy na listu, tanečnici lidového souboru nebo hrušku?

A flood of colors and patterns, that's Tattoo Expo Haná 2024 in Olomouc. The largest tattoo festival in Central Europe.The best of the best in the branch was there. If someone thinks that tattoos are ugly or tasteless, that they are not suitable for a decent person, he should see how REAL professionals do it.

The blackbird and the starling are our most common birds. You can go to the park at any time and take a picture of them. On the other hand, it's not like a supermarket, you come in, get what you want and go home. These photos are hard to take with a cell phone. You need either a compact with a decent zoom or a telephoto lens. While it's true that park birds are used to people and can be attracted at close range, it's better to be able to zoom in on them without disturbing their natural behavior. Another thing is not to scare the birds away. Even if the people are quiet and peaceful, the park can be busy at times. But if you photograph birds a lot, you can already guess which places are more suitable and where it is not worth trying. Last but not least, it's important to choose the right time of day. Birds tend to be most active in the morning because they are hungry and looking for food after the night. Unfortunately, I'm not that active in the morning, so it's always a compromise :)

In yesterday's article I mentioned the castle of Helfštýn. And there is one thing that is inseparably connected with Helfštýn: the art of blacksmithing.At the end of August, Helfštýn hosts the Hefaiston Blacksmith Festival, which includes an exhibition of blacksmith works. This year, as in previous years, there were dozens of them on display.

We have the "European Heritage Days" in the first half of September. Some cultural monuments are open for free on some days, and some places are open that you can't get to at other times. On the other hand, I have been almost everywhere in my area over the years (or at least the more important or well-known places).

It doesn't stop when you pull the trigger. Many photos require some editing on the computer. After all, even in the days of wet processing, photos were processed in the darkroom. But today we have much better options on the computer. And most importantly, we get the result right away, without the tedious process of developing, fixing, polishing and drying.
