Gdańsk Brzeźno Walk

On the beginning of the January we had still holidays mostly because of 2 days off and the Epiphany on 6th of January. Thanks to that I could take some photos during the daylight. Usually I take photos in the evening or sometimes on Sunday I manage to catch some daylight in the late afternoon. This time we had a nice walk at the Brzeźno boulevard and beach. I had a lot of time to take photos unfortunately the weather was against me. It was very humid and cloudy without a sun. The result of shooting during such weather you can see on the photos below. First part was taken in Brzeźno, a few next of the Marynarki Polskiej Avenue I took when driving home through the windshield. Others are from Gdynia and Gdańsk Wrzeszcz (long exposures).

Toilet. You can see small WC sign which means toilet. But in fact this building looks more like a bunker.

Below photos taken through the windshield while driving the Marynarki Polskiej Avenue back from Brzeźno. I like them. The blacks and the sky makes the atmosphere on those photos.

Below are long exposure photos. Exposure was between 10 and 30s. I had no tripod with me so I have to use everything I could find as the stable stand for the camera. I really like those photos of the semaphore. There was a slight fog and I thought that those lights will look great forming a nice light beams. I considered shooting in color but I didn’t feel like fighting with the white balance as the light was mixed with tungsten and sodium lamps.
