| Yawning Prague taxidriver near Charles bridge | | 2007-08-27 01:30:00 | | Prague taxidriver at the end of Karlova street facing the Charles Bridge... and yawning :)We had a school cafeteria across the street. We were 12 or so and have to run through the old Prague (Old Town square included) to have our lunch. We have to run because we wanted to be there first. And we found it funny running in the streets :)Taken with Canonet + Tri-X... | | By: Prague Daily Photo | | |

| Things to see from Charles Bridge other than Prague Castle | | 2007-08-21 23:29:00 | | You can also see a boat from Charles Bridge. Or you can see Charles Bridge from a boat :)Prague started big and a very very long reconstruction of Charles Bridge. It will be still open for tourists but it will be slowly under reconstruction. I think it will end in 2011 or so. Maybe later. They are reusing the old stones. The originals from Petr Parler from the 14th century. And when the stone is unusable, they will make a new one but in the old fashioned way. So it will look just like when the bridge was firstly finished in 1402.More photos of Charles Bridge at Prague DP.Canonet QL17 + Kodak Tri-X 400 (exposed at 800 ISO)My Canonet QL17 series... | | By: Prague Daily Photo | | |

| Canonet QL17 Week: #4 - Charles bridge | | 2007-08-09 21:35:00 | | I bet everybody who has ever been to Prague was here - at the entrance to Charles bridge with a view on Prague's castle.I think I've seen very similar photo before. But I don't know where. Maybe a lot of people shoot this while in Prague :)Photo taken with Canonet QL17 and Kodak Tri-X 400 (exposed at 800 ISO)---It's raining in Prague. And when it is raining in Prague, you better not wear flip-flops. I can confirm they are way too much dangerous on Prague's polished stone block paving.One more (photo related) thing - we had a photoshoot today and you can guess my excitement when we were shooting with a Hasselblad H3D-39 :) I don't think you can get much better. The pictures from H3D are just stunning! If you'll ever need a pro photographer in Prague then I suggest Radovan Subin.... well, I've just spent an hour surfing at Hasselblad website and going through the Hasselblad section on eBay. I should do something less time wasteful. Hope you like the Canonet series :)... | | By: Prague Daily Photo | | |

| 650 years of Charles Bridge | | 2007-07-09 01:39:00 | | Charles bridge - Prague's famous landmark - is 650 years today. Emperor Charles IV started the construction with the first stone on July 9, 1347 at 5:31 am (I don't know how they know it so exactly).There were celebrations, of course. But as we have national holidays on Thursday and Friday I think there were only tourist here celebrating while all Praguers were out of Prague :)My older posts with Charles bridge:Charles bridge and St. Nicholas Church at the Old Town SquareAnother shot of Charles bridgeCharles bridgeCharles bridge with The Queen Anna's folly... | | By: Prague Daily Photo | | |
