Photo Gallery » Summer in Gdańsk

Gdańsk is one of the most visited cities in Poland. There are many attractions and events for tourists here. There it is in the city center and the beaches are very crowded in summer. I like to come to Gdańsk early in the morning on such summer days. The city is still asleep, and I can admire the sunrise over the city in peace. You must also see Gdańsk in the afternoon and evening. The gardens of restaurants and cafes are full. You can hear different languages on each side - you can feel like you are under the Tower of Babel :-) The city is alive and having fun!
You can see more photos from this amazing city in the galleries: Gdansk by night, Gdańsk from the sky, Autumn in Gdańsk and Winter in Gdańsk.
If you like my photos, you can order a printout :-)

Crane in Gdańsk after sunrise

The Gdańsk Crane and the Motława River embankment are best photographed in the morning, shortly after sunrise. Therefore, on this summer day, I went to Gdańsk exceptionally early.

Summer panorama of Gdańsk

The low sun illuminated Gdańsk beautifully. In the morning, in my opinion, there is the best light for shooting. The only problem is the very early sunrises in summer.

Taking pictures with the drone

Taking pictures with a drone gives you a lot of flexibility in the location of the camera. You don't have to fly high at all. Thanks to the fact that you can take a photo from a few meters high, we avoid optical distortions. Drones are great for photographing cities and architecture.

The Motława River is like a mirror

The morning was practically windless that day. There was almost no wave on the surface of the water. The photo shows the tenement houses at Dlugie Pobrzeże and even a piece of the historic Crane :-)

Gdańskie obrazki

Top-down view of the tenement houses in the Main Town, the Motława River and the Granary Island. I really like such abstract pictures. Additionally, when looking from above, you can see the difference between old and new architecture. In the older part, maybe it is a bit uneven, but you can see free spaces and some greenery ... but in the new one,every space is built-up.

Sunrise in Gdańsk

Sunrise over the marina and the Angielska Grobla estate in the center of Gdańsk. There is a cable-stayed bridge in the distance and refinery chimneys on the horizon.

The Motława river bank after sunrise

There are no crowds of tourists on Dlugie Pobrzeze in the morning. I recommend that you go for a walk and admire Gdańsk architecture in peace.

Granary Island in the morning

The smooth surface of the water on the Motława River encouraged people to look for frames with a reflection.

The sun has gone down, the day is over. Evening falls over Gdańsk. The lanterns are already on but the sky is not completely black yet. This is the perfect time to start flying and photographing. It is only a few or a dozen minutes of good light.

Town Hall and Basilica

The Gothic-Renaissance Town Hall and the co-cathedral St. Mary's Church dominate the Main Town in Gdańsk.

Night pictures from the drone

Wind is the biggest problem when shooting with a drone after sunset. This evening was practically windless so I could set the shutter speed to 2.5 seconds. At ISO 100 and 2.8 aperture the photo came out blurry, sharp and without noise.
