Praga, a photo from Prague, Bohemia

Photographer's Note

Old City
It is the part of Prague that began to be populated immediately after the Castle area and Malá Strana. The gateway to the Old City was also conceived as a symbolic triumphal arch through which the Bohemian kings passed during the course of the coronation.
In Staré Město, the Old Town, Italians, Jews, Germans, Burgundians settled there during the 12th century.
In the fourteenth century, Charles IV of Luxembourg further expanded the city with the foundation of the New City, here settled less wealthy population, was separated from Staré Město with a large moat.

Hi Silvio,

The wideness of the river is creating depth. The point of view is showing the details of the church and of the buildings. The light is making the colours to stand out. Have a nice day.

Ciao Silvio
andare in barca è un vero e proprio passatempo diffuso, ma del resto deve essere veramente bella la città vista dal fiume.
Saluti
Carlo

Hello Silvio,
The many small boats are nicely spread over the foreground and make a good introduction for the beautiful view of the buildings.
Wonderful architecture along the riverside.
Best regards, Paul

Bonjour, cher ami Silvio,
Cette vue rapprochée est très agréable. Les petits bateaux semblent s'en donner à coeur joie.
Quant aux édifices ils prennent des allures majestueuses.
Très belle lumière.
Amitiés.

Hello Silvio,
The warm sunlight on the beautiful façades around the calm water is amazing. The city really looks at its best here and the many small boats in the foreground add a lively and appealing summer mood. Also the large cloud creates an interesting backdrop.

Ciao Silvio

Good to see people using and enjoying the river and not using it as an open sewer as happens in some other countries. Good sharpness & nice reflections. Tfs!

Hi Silvio
An enchanting compo bathed in warm light with great detail and dof, as eye drawing architecture of the backdrop grabs as strong focus. High colour contrast giving a final bit of boost to the whole shot and dotted of boats make the shot work superbly as a final touch, Excellent.
Best regards

Ciao Silvio,
beautiful panoramic view of the old town. I don't remember this spot at all I think it must be less popular point of view but not less beautiful. It looks like one can rent a boat to enjoy the river -this is a great news for me because this may add something interesting for my daughter if I take her there :)
The boats add some action and interest in the foreground while in the centre we can admire so many attractive structures. The light was challenging but the final effect is quite romantic.
Excellent work,
M
