2007

I've seen this shot taken before, not only from here but also from the Most Legii, which actually works better because it's closer to the Hradcany. Unfortunately, the bridge is obscuring the numbers on this Tatra T3 double set.

This shot is too blurred to identify this tram's number, but it's definitely a Tatra T3 double set.

I just liked the composition on this one, and the lighting. :-)

This is one of my favorites, in my opinion one of my most "classic" of tram shots. :-)

I like this shot, too, with the slight blur of motion.

I saw the compostion of this shot and immediately liked it, so here it is. :-)

Here's a variation on the DPP#s 8223, 8322, and ???? shot.

This is a variation on the first tram shot that I ever uploaded to Flickr, which some of you will remember. In this shot, though, there are three, instead of two trams. :-)

This shot originally had a bad light leak on the left, but I cropped it to square format so now it's alright. This is my only Prague tram photo taken from this location, and one of the few that I have taken from a above.

This is the smallest of Bohemia Bagel's Prague restaurants. Actually, come to think of it, it isn't really a restaurant, but a kiosk, as you can't sit inside. In the summertime they have tables on the sidewalk, though.

I just saw the light and shot this. I like how it looks. :-)

I'm 90% certain this sculpture dates to the Communist era. Why else would it have workmen and the word "Bratrych?" For the Czech speakers: is that "brothers," or "brotherhood?" I don't actually know since it's not in my dictionary.

I've always noticed this hotel on Tylovo Namesti, but I never took a proper photo until I was standing by Bohemia Bagel, had my Lomo in my hands, saw good light, and took the shot. :-)

This is another case of seeing a shot and taking it, more or less. :-)

I was standing on Resinovo next to the Zeleznicni Most, and noticed this perfect shot of the Staropramen Pivovar (Brewery) and Stadion Stahov up on the hill overlooking it. Normally, I think Staropramen have a big sign out, but either I didn't manage to get it into my shot, or they've taken it down.

This is the famed "Dancing House," constructed in 1994-1996 to both widespread acclaim and derision, it was designed by Croatian architect Vlado Milunic in cooperation with Canadian architect Fred Gehry, it now houses a French restaurant on the roof, plus offices. It was originally intended to be a cultureal centure, but this never happened. My photo is unusual in that it views the building from the southwest, whereas normally photographers prefer to catch the more radical curves to this very oddly-shaped building that face to the northwest.

Here's a sweeping view of southeastern Prague from the Palackeho Most, although the low altitude inhibits the view somewhat. You can see Vysehrad, the old castle and neighborhood which predates Prazky Hrad, most notably featuring the Basilica of Saints Peter and Paul, with the twin steeples.

Perfect afternoon light!!! :-)
