Amsterdam Winter Nights


The Amsterdam Lights Festival was organised 2 years ago the 1st time and it seems it became a regular event for the cold, windy and humid Amsterdam winter nights. This year the weather is exceptionally windy with gusts over 50 km/h, making the photographer's job tougher when walking, as well as when shooting. I usually only carry a travel tripod that is relatively light and durable, but of course it is more prone to be blown away by the wind. This was a good excuse to try HDR, a digital technology that blends several shots of the same subject into one, hopefully taking the best out of all.
