Trip to Prague... · **2 Likes**

Hello.
Last week I was on a vacation in Prague and it was great. I really enjoyed Prague.
First we went to Telč and after that we were 3 days in Prague. After that when we were returning to Croatia we stopped in Český Krumlov and it was just beautiful

I only regret a little because I didn't carry my tripod for night shots but when I think about it was holiday and if I had carried it all around it wouldn't be a vacation

So here are the photos and I hope you don't mind that I'm posting so many of them.

Telč

Prague

Český Krumlov

What a beautiful city Prague is. You have a wonderful eye too. Some of the statues are so interesting. Is there a story about #10 and 11? I enjoyed the third one from the end too. The lighting was so nice. Thanks for taking me along on your vacation.

#10 is Man Hanging Out
"This unique sculpture in Old Town Prague depicts psychoanalyst Sigmund Freud hanging by a hand and pondering whether to hold on or let go. It is an unexpected and eye-catching-if not disturbing-image in an otherwise sublime urban area."

#11 is Žižkov Television Tower
"In 2000, sculptures by Czech artist David Černý of babies crawling up and down were temporarily attached to the tower's pillars. The sculptures were admired by many and were returned in 2001 as a permanent installation."

An interesting city with a mix of old and new architecture side by side.

Beautiful shots! I visited Prague a couple of years ago and tell people without hesitation that it is the most beautiful city I have ever been to. Your pictures took me right back!! Thanks for sharing!

Beautiful shots, I would love to visit there some day.

Wonderful. I must visit this city! Very special place, and well captured and shown.

Very nice series! Some nice general street photos and great closeups of details, statues and the like. Well put together and good captures

Wow, so many great photos!!

I was originally going to list all of the photos I liked the best, but then I realised they were all the best, and all really great. Love the variety of perspectives and different types of shots - you've captured your trip well and should be proud of those great shots

Excellent series, Igor. Thanks for sharing.
Especially like the "Sigmund Freud" photo.

Very well done! Your photos of Prague and Cseky Krumlov reminded me of our visit to both places in 2012. The light in Prague is wonderful, only rivalled by Venice, in my opinion, and Cseky Krumlov is a photographer's delight. Did you visit the Jan Saudek gallery? Risqué, but marvellous work. Thanks for sharing.

Wonderful images.

Those I know who have travelled widely consider Prague the most beautiful city in Europe.
