Re: Prague for Photographers (and Instagrammers)
I've been in Prague a few times, and taken a lot of pictures, but I'm blown away by the new scenes and new eye on familiar ones. Really great pictures. As for the Charles Bridge...my best pictures of it are from the river. Once you get on the bridge...well, you can't really see it for the fascinating people scenes!

A great piece! Prague is one of my favorite cities in Europe and your post helped me remember exactly why I love visiting it. You've a great eye and the ability to see photographic opportunities -- your images are excellent! Regarding the Charles Bridge, I think the best images of the bridge itself are taken at a distance. But images from the top showing people, the row of saints and vendors are also fun and memorable.

This was my second time in Prague, the first was in summer and I can tell you the city changes completely. In winter it gets more mysterious and fascinating and you can take awesome pictures from the bridge but the best moment is at the sunrise or it will be packed with people. Thanks a lot for your nice words, they're really appreciated!

Thank you very much! I'm still learning though. I have an architectural and geometrical view of the world since this is my educational background but sometimes I get frustrated when I picture the final image in my mind but the lack of technique makes the shot different from what I wanted. But I'm working on it That bridge is stunning from every point of view, to me is more a matter of time, sunrise is the best moment to shoot it.
