Just another Starbucks! Well this one is pretty cool though… And since this photoblog has also a lot to do with coffee, I think this photo is absolutely appropriated to be posted here. Anyway, I use to go to this Starbucks, which is located inside a shopping mall, and have a delicious coffee with lots [...]

This shot was taken during a Christmas party that took place in a dining hall of an office building. My wife’s company has its headquarters there, so they used the dining hall to gather the employees and their children. The space is fairly big, so they occupied only half of it for this event – [...]

This photo was not much hard to edit. It had some minor ghosting artifacts but nothing to give me a lot of trouble. This one has a lot more of the Christmas spirit, though it was taken on a shopping mall.  There are kids and elves under the Christmas tree, and there’s even a happy [...]

Just a photo of a huge dome in a shopping mall. The good thing about shopping malls at this time of the year is definitely the Christmas decoration. There are lights all over, different colors, lots of contrasts, etc. So I’m having a great time taking pictures of these infrastructures. This dome is very beautiful [...]

Another photo under the theme “Christmas shopping”. This photo is one of those with a pre-edited HDR exibiting ghosting artifacts all over. Well, well… I’m getting used to it I guess. The truth is that I can’t complain much, because nobody forced me to take the shots. But it’s ok overall… It’s kind of a [...]

Just a HDR of people shopping for Christmas. This photo was a pain to edit. Guys… I must be crazy to go shooting people buying stuff for Christmas. You can’t imagine the ghosting artifacts I had to clean on this one! There were people all over, including a guy who saved me this set of [...]

In the post “Rising Towards an Electrical Storm” I promised to release a special edition of that photo. So here it is. This edition is much darker, almost with a grim atmosphere… Doesn’t this remind you anything? Well, the name I chose for this photo says it all! It definitely reminds me of Tim Burton. [...]

A garden has always its nooks; that is a universal truth. Calouste Gulbenkian’s garden ain’t an exception, and, amidst the vegetation, we can find several spots. Some are not very interesting but some are, such as this one. This is in fact an hidden spot. If you keep walking through the main garden’s paths, you’ll [...]

When I published the photo “Rising Towards an Electrical Storm”, here on Pedro’s, I wrote about the gardens of the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation. This photo is a perspective of a small part of them. This place is gorgeous and brings back a lot of memories of the time I spent there when I was a [...]
