Tumski Bridge (Polish: Most Tumski) is a steel bridge over the north branch of the Oder river in Wrocław, Poland. Constructed in 1889 it replaced an old wooden bridge to connect Ostrów Tumski and Wyspa Piaskowa. Until 1945, its name was Dombrücke.
It is an old road bridge now open to pedestrians only.
Tumski Bridge is also called Lovers Bridge, Cathedral Bridge or Green Bridge. It's a place of enamoured tradition for lovers. The bridge is full of padlocks which lovers leave to cherish their feelings. An important part of the ceremony is to throw the key in to the Odra river.
Comments and constructive criticisms are always welcome, and thanks for visiting.

Holi, The Festival of Colors presents a wonderful opportunity for art teachers to use bright colors in their art lessons. Colored powders can be created to create powder paintings (similar to sand paintings). Paintings can be created to illustrate the history of the Indian holiday.
The Festival of Colours, (also called Holaka, Phagwa, Dhulheti, Dhulandi or Dhulendi) is a popular Hindu spring festival observed around the world. Holi is a time when humans and nature shake off the gloom of winter and rejoice in the colors of spring. The holiday is primarily observed in India, Nepal, and countries with large Hindu populations such as Suriname, Guyana, Fiji, Mauritius and Trinidad. In West Bengal of India and Bangladesh, it is known as Dolyatra (Doljatra) or Boshonto Utsav. The annual festival is celebrated on the day of the full moon in the Hindu month of Phalguna. That month is March in the anglo calendar. In 2009 Holi was celebrated on March 11. In 2010 it will be celebrated February 28. The most important day, Holi, is celebrated by Hindus throwing colored powder and colored water at each other. The Holika Dahan (or Chhoti Holi) is celebrated by lighting bonfires.

I'm open to all constructive criticism good or bad on the pictures from this recent trip. I thought more about composition and exposure on this trip than I ever have and really took some time to set up most of my shots. I figure maybe a little constructive criticism will hopefully help to advance my skills as a photographer. So if you've got a second and you see something about the photo that you like or don't like, don't be afraid to speak up!
Although admittedly I know I'll never have the eye for light and shadow quite the way Susan does, I did see something here. I hadn't planned on getting yet another shot of Spaceship Earth while walking by, but when I saw the sky, and the way the sun was creating light and shadow on the geosphere, I knew I had to get a picture. I didn't even have the right lens on. I would have liked to have gone a little wider.
As for the edit, it was done entirely in Picasa3 - Google's free picture editor / manager. Although, I will admit, it is limited in many ways to what it can do - I find myself using this handy, quick editor more and more. And yes, it will process RAW files - which is awesome! I believe Picasa takes sort of a different approach with RAW files though - I could be wrong about this and if anyone knows more about the algorithm they use, please correct me - but I think Picasa, in an attempt to control highlights, automatically adjusts exposure down a stop or two, when it needs to. This is fine with me as there is not an "exposure adjustment" feature so to speak. So when you go to the "tuning" tab you get four really convenient tabs: "fill light", "highlights", "shadows" and lastly "color temperature". You would think that adjusting "highlights" and "shadows" would "save" them, but no, it increases them. In other words, drag the "shadows" slider to the right and you get more shadow. Odd, right? The "fill light" slider is an amazing thing. It adjusts the exposure without (to extent) killing the highlights and somehow seems to keep a pretty well check on the noise. It really works slick! So here, in this picture, I was definitely going for a dramatic high contrast effect. So first thing I did was pull down the saturation little (oh I forgot to mention, don't drag the saturation slider to the right in Picasa as it really does weird things to the blues in your picture. This is one thing Google needs to work on, I think), then I pulled the highlights slider all the way to the right to increase the highlight contrast. Next I added a little fill light. Then dragged the shadow slider to the right a little to achieve the contrast on the bottom of the geosphere. Yes I know I lost a lot of shadow detail in beneath SSE, but I'm okay with that. It's not the focus in this picture, IMO. Lastly I dragged the color temperature slider to the right a little to get the warmer colors. That's it, it took me a total of five minutes!

You can see I unintentionally underexposed this shot (by 2 stops, to be sure)... put this one in the category of "heavily manipulated" pictures. I kind of like the end product. I'll tell you briefly how I did this, in case anyone is wondering:
In RAWTherapee, I made a backwards "S" curve in "tone curves" on the RAW image. What this did was even out the tones or flatten the contrast in the picture, basically pulled up the shadows mostly. I then adjusted + 3.5 EV believe it or not. Saved as 8 bit tiff. Imported that into Paint Shop Pro Photo X2. Duplicated the background layer twice and made one layer an overlay and the other a multiply bringing the opacity down to about 60% on both. Merged all layers. Duplicated the layer again and used a pretty hefty gausian blur (I think around a 30 pixels?). Using the "film filters" effects setting within PSPX2 I set a warming filter with a strength of about 75. I then set that layer to a "screen" and dropped the opacity down to about 65% maybe. Ran auto levels and saved as a full size jpeg. Imported into Noise Ninja to get rid of noise. Resized and sharpened and there you go...
I know... I'm crazy, right?
