The sunrise - part two

Another bunch of pics from the beautiful morning I mentioned in the previous post:)

Sunrise over the Baltic Sea

The first part of my holiday memories starts with a breathtaking sunrise. It was a very long day... We got up at 4 o'clock to catch this beautiful moment. What we didn't expect was that the train trip to Gdańsk we had planned for that day would take 3 hours one way... But this is a totally different story that I will tell you some other time.

A little preview

Last week was an amazing time. I was visiting our Polish sea. I had been there once before, but I hadn't been able to see all these beautiful places. This time I was enjoying every moment and surprisingly... I like the sea:) This is a little preview of what our Baltik Sea looks like.

The Tatra Mountains - early summer trip.

Last weekend we were visiting our beloved mountains - Tatras. The weather was pretty good, although there were storms everyday at noon so we had to start our trips really early in the morning. We certainly relaxed there, as usual, as it is a perfect place for taking a deep breath and chilling out.

Have a nice Sunday, everyone:)

New Year's Eve 2010

New Year's Eve was a time of learning how to shoot fireworks. I had been reading articles about the proper technique before, but that night was to be a practical course. There were some beautiful, colourful fireworks visible from my backyard, but apparently my reflex failed. I managed to capture some of the small ones. These are the results.

The Autumn 2010 is over

We have had a very beautiful, sunny and warm Autumn this year. Unfortunately it's definitely over. Another cold has visited our home. Through sneezing and coughing I want to show you the last Autumn image I've taken in November.

Autumn forest - part two

These are the three pictures I was trying to put in the previous post, I had some trouble with it, though. Anyway, I decided to place them in a separate post.

Autumn forest

These photos were taken in a forest in Rybnik. I didn't know there is such a beautiful place in the middle of a town of 140000 inhabitants.
I will publish a few more photos from that sunday morning when the blogger system gets fixed. It's kind of broken today:/

Tatras

Today I would like to come back to our holidays. The weather was beautiful today so I started to think about this beautiful summer we had here in Poland this year. It was pretty hot and sometimes we were fed up with it, but it was still summer:)

But now, the Tatra mountains... I wish I was there now...

Two busy weeks...

I've been trying to write something for the last two weeks. Unfortunately, there are such periods in a teacher's life that she (or he) has no time for anything. The beginning of a new school year was very stressful for me. I think that's why I'm sick now - my immunity was weakened. I didn't have much free time to look through your new posts, my dear readers, but I'm going to check them out this week as I've got a few days off.

What I want to show you today are two panoramas from Tatras. Both were taken in the Chochołowska Valley. I love this valley for beautiful views and the fact that there is a possibility of renting a bike. I'm joking now... but I'm going to use it the next time I'll be there as the trail is very long. Thanks to the bikes you can save your strength and visit nearby peaks.

Waterfalls in Tatras

There are many big waterfalls in Tatras like "Wodogrzmoty Mickiewicza" but no one menstions these small ones. I decided to take some photos of these small, unknown waterfalls.

Another lake:)

This lake is called "Gąsienicowy". It is not one of the five lakes from my previous posts. It's a separate place, also beautiful, located in the Tatra Mountains.

I'm having trouble with colours and brightness on my computer lately. I don't know how to adjust the brightness of some photos in PS. Ysterday I was checking my blog on my parents' computer and it turned out that they are far too dark - sometimes I couldn't even believe that these are the same photos I was working with last week. Now I don't know if they are too dark? My computer may give me a false image. What do You think of the brightness in my photos, especially the last panoramas. Do they look unnatural?

The valley of Five Polish Lakes - part two.

The first photo is from 2008 and the next two are from our last trip. My husband is working on my 360° panorama from this valley. I will publish it as soon as possible - I can't wait:)

The Valley of Five Polish Lakes - part one.

As You know our last trip to Slovakia wasn't successful due to the rainy weather. That's why we decided to go to The Tatra Mountains. We packed ourselves up and went without even having a place to stay there. The weather was beautiful (it's very rare in Tatras) and we longed for hiking very much.

The first collectiona of photos, mostly panoramas, were taken in The Valley of Five Polish Lakes. It is withought doubt the most beautiful place in Poland.

Rivers - part two.

Today, more shots from Slovakia.

Slovakia is a beautiful country full of mountain ranges. I used to go there with my parents when I was in primary school and later when I was in my teens. I've got wonderful memories from those visits.

These photos show some rivers from The Demianovska Valley.
