A few selected pictures from today’s walk. I hope you’ll like.

This sunday, my dad and my bro went for a quick, practise, match to the local golf course in Prague, Hostivar. I’ve wanted to go with them for some time, to shoot some photos. Unfortunately, the weather wasn’t as good as on saturday, but at least the lighting conditions were uniform. Anyways, here are a few, selected, color corrected, comped etc… pictures I personally like the most. Hope you’ll like too

A few pictures of our dog, Channela, taken during today’s walk. Hope you’ll like.

Some photos from this weekend. Nothing much, but I was happy to finally test-out my new lens, plus, there was a part at my girl’s mom’s summer house, steaks, beer and such…

Here are a few more photos I took with my new Canon 70-200mm lens. It’s a real pleasure shooting with this one

More to come as soon as I have some spare time…

Ahhhh… back from a one week vacation, full of energy, full of power yeah, it was cool, literarly. But I’m glad to be back home sitting at my workstation editing photos and catching up missed work :/

Anyways, I thought I’d share some of the photos I took during the week period which I personally liked as much as to not be ashamed (too much to show them publicly. So here they are:

First and fourth day we went skiing on Dachstain, a well known iceberg in Austria, pretty flat, but with an awesome view over the Alps.

On the 3rd, critical, day, me and my girlfriend went for a hike to see the frozen waterfalls in the mountains. The path there was a bit rough, but it was a beautiful day with no clouds in the sky and the nature and environment was fantastic. See for your self:

And here are some misc pictures taken during the days, by the way, did I say it was cold?

Some friends of my dad’s invited him and me to a shooting-range to fire some arms. It was great! Further more, I got to shoot from a sniper rifle (don’t know the type, unfortunately) which was super awesome. One of the guys promised to take more fire arms next time we go for a shot. Hopefully I get to shoot a chaingun or a bazooka next time

Ota, entering the shooting-range premises and unpacking his firearms:

Me, my dad and his friends started on a pistol short shooting-range with a Glock and a Berreta 9mm:

However, the long (200m) shooting-range is where the fun really started:

I got to shoot at 150m and 200m targets with much worse results then the rest of the lot, but still hitting the black spot, which felt great! The kick-back of the Remington 700 cal. 308 was overwhelming, really, I didn’t expect that at first actually (hence only the last 3 shots out of 4 hit the target, at first ). The smaller rifle was a CZ 452 ZKM cal. 22.

As I said before, it was a great experience and I’m really looking forward to the next time we go shooting. I highly recommend it to anyone who admires weapons and all kinds of armory as it is mandatory that you understand the power and responsibility you hold at your fingertip.
