Pano of the Day: Festive Moscow, part 1.

Hi everyone! Holidays are over, so it's time to return to the usual format of posts. Therefore, today, on Monday, we will enjoy the large-format pictures of the festive illumination in Moscow. Let's go!

Amateur photographers usually do everything according to the following plan: thoughts like "I have not shot anything for a long time", the discovery of beautiful pictures in the tape from more agile colleagues, enthusiastic comments and a surge of inspiration, which, however, lasts only a couple of days, immersion in the new year's bustle, holidays, guests, gatherings, respite, TV, aaaand ..... going to work. There's no time for shoting. And so from year to year. Fortunately, we are not :-)))

From time to time it turns out to be in the center of our capital and every time the festive illumination is simply amazing. Moreover, I like that the format of festive events is not limited to it, but is becoming more complex and intricate, interesting not only for children but also for adults. I can assure you, friends, that for several years I feel in the center of Moscow, as in the European capital. It is worth noting that even in walking distance the number of visual beauties is so great that at one time it does not overpower, so you have to visit the center several times.

A couple of weeks ago I managed to shoot a fantastic Christmas tree on Lubyanka and illumination at the Bolshoi theater, and last friday I decided to shoot on Manezhnaya square. With me I had only a camera and a small tripod, which, nevertheless, allowed me to shoot a lot of great shots, which are just waiting in the wings. Then I realized that it is necessary to come back here again with a large tripod and a panoramic head, and as soon as possible, because soon all this beauty will be dismantled until next year. After looking at a couple of interesting points of shooting, I came here on Saturday night. This time I shot only panoramas, having decided not to be sprayed on other types. A light snow strove to fill up the camera, but I prudently took with me membrane and hid it from the jigs. By the way, very cool rescued the remote control: press it even with gloves. However, two hours later I managed to thoroughly freeze, despite the warm clothes and shoes and went to warm up in the nearest McDonald's. In general, that's what happened in the end.

Camera: Sony a6000
Lens: Sony Sony SEL18200

Panoramic picture was created of 25 vertical shots (previously processed in Adobe Lightroom) in Autopano Giga and then finally tuned in Adobe Photoshop.

Used tripod, panoramic head and remote control.

P.S. Open in the new tab to see a bigger version.

Follow me :-) It will be interesting!
