Landskrona Citadel After Sunset

The Landskrona Citadel is a much photographed landmark here in the small Swedish town of Landskrona in southern Sweden, but by far the best time to photograph it (according to me) is a little after sunset. It is well lit by tungsten lights which light up the red brick walls in a glowing red that just doesn't present as well during daylight hours.

I took these hand held with my trusty D850 and the Nikon 24-120mm f4 lens, processed in DxO PhotoLab 8.




 

Lock Stock and Barrel Restaurant on Halfmånen Beach

Every year on Halfmånen Beach in Landskrona they set up a temporary restaurant for the duration of summer, this year it is called the Lock Stock and Barrel Restaurant. It seems to be quite popular, though I confess I have never actually eaten there.

As is my habit I took some photos there while out on a late evening cycle around town.

Shooting Glass in the Home Studio

The nice thing about having a spare room in the house for my tiny studio is that it is always ready to go day or night when I get the bug to shoot something. Today I spied some of my wife's glass ornaments... so I appropriated a few pieces and photographed them. Huzzah!

Taken with my D750 and the wonderful Sigma 105mm f2.8 on a tripod. Two sb700 flashes for side lights shot through reflectors fitted with grids and an sb910 fired through a large octabox from behind. All three speed-lights controlled and triggered via the awesome Nikon CLS remote flash control system.
