Awaiting

This is a photo of me and my wife just days before the birth of our daughter. It was my entry for a contest, but sadly it finished on 6th place.
The biggest challenge for me was the high POV. I do not have a remote control and had to rush to the modeling position in a few seconds. The final result is not really what I was imagining but it still worked for me. Strobist: I used a Nissin Di866 flash bounced on the white ceiling.

Sunset over Mount Athos

noreply@blogger.com (Todor Kolev) — Tue, 08 Jun 2010 10:25:00 +0000

This shot was taken a month ago while on a short post-marriage trip to Greece. Greece really is a beautiful country. The history surround Mount Athos is very interesting too. I recommend that you read it here : Mount Athos in wikipedia.

Another View from the office

noreply@blogger.com (Todor Kolev) — Sat, 06 Mar 2010 19:36:00 +0000

I just love the view that I get at the office. It is lovely and I enjoy taking photos of it. There are a lot of photos of it in here but I never get tired.

A few photos

noreply@blogger.com (Todor Kolev) — Wed, 17 Feb 2010 19:55:00 +0000

Today I am posting a few new photos.

The first two are photos that I took while at a small village in Bulgaria named Leshnitsa.

That second photo is one that I really like. The color of the sky is beautiful.

A road in the forest. I like the dark mood of this photo.

And lastly a sunrise over the city of Sofia.

Today I got a few shots. Honestly they weren't as good as I wanted them but Lightroom helped. A lot. I hope that you like them.

Wood carving

noreply@blogger.com (Todor Kolev) — Wed, 20 Jan 2010 19:39:00 +0000

I have been interested in wood carving lately. I would like to make a surprise present for my girlfriend out of wood but I am not sure if I will make it. Let's hope that I do.
Those are the tools I have for now and also a piece of wood that I'm trying to transform into a boat.

The church

Grand parent

This is the grand parent of my digital camera. A middle format BRONICA. We did a few photos with it today, I am curious how they will turn out.

Don't mess with me!

I have missed a few days but I will catch up this week. 365 is harder than expected.

I have nothing to say about today's photo. Clouds again.

Street view

noreply@blogger.com (Todor Kolev) — Sun, 10 Jan 2010 21:18:00 +0000

Lately I notice that sunset is really beautiful in my town, if the clouds are well placed they create magnificent light for landscapes.

Pile of books

noreply@blogger.com (Todor Kolev) — Sat, 09 Jan 2010 23:58:00 +0000

This is a pile of books I was reading. The first two are Eragon and Eldest and the third is a french book (La sirene rouge). I enjoy reading books in English and French over reading them in my native language as I use it all the time while French and English I use rarely.

The mountain again

noreply@blogger.com (Todor Kolev) — Fri, 08 Jan 2010 19:10:00 +0000

I just love this mountain. I love looking at it.
