Österreichische Nationalbibliothek

These are some more of the photos from my recent Austria trip- HDR shots of the state hall from Austria's national library in Vienna. A blogger working for Vienna university library was kind enough to feature them on the university library blog. I didn't have my tripod with me (nor do I particularly have a reason to think I would have been allowed to use it if I had) but the HDR has come out crisply regardless. Some loss of sharpness in the foreground of some shots so I still need to refine my technique but I think I'm improving my HDR overall.

I can't help wonder if there isn't some duplication in the shots, though. Do I really need all six? What do you think?

It's been quite a while since I updated and at least part of the reason for that is that I've been travelling again, this time to Ireland, Austria and Slovakia. I've got some of the best photos I've ever taken from that trip so I think that over the next few updates I'll be sharing some of those with you. The above is from the long room of the Austrian National Library, perhaps the most beautiful and moving building I've ever stood in, which is especially remarkable given that it is not a religious building.
