I’ve moved onto a new, larger external hard drive for storing my photographs. So, I went through all the photos I had left to process and moved them over to the new one prior to flying out to Africa. I was sure I’d processed all the Prague photos I was going to process but decided to take a look anyway. Then, I found this one. It won’t have made the cut originally because I was focused on trying to capture Prague with minimal people. Upon looking at this photo again, I decided I kind of liked it. The sky is beautiful and it doesn’t look so crowded as to be uncomfortable (which it can be sometimes). So, I thought it might be nice to show just how lively Prague actually is.

I adore Prague and have been twice. On each occasion I failed to get a clear shot of Charles Bridge.
The first time was early in the morning and believe it or not the bridge was almost deserted but there was a model photo shoot taking place. I think I took some great pictures. However this was the time of film as opposed to digital cameras and I think my films were ruined by the camera or some electronics. A month’s worth of travel photos ruined.
The second time I went was March one year. I got up early and arrived at a near deserted bridge. It was chucking down with rain though and I failed to get the photo just as I wanted.
Must be horrible to lose a month’s worth of photos!!
I engaged in a bit of trickery to get clear shots of Charle’s Bridge. I went down early when there were few people and use patience, but it’s still very unlikely you’ll get a clear shot! So, I took a lot of the same compositions and made sure that by combining them all in photoshop I would be able to mask out the people.
You are far more fortunate than I. Photoshop is not something I’ve ever bought or used. All my photos so far on my blog are as taken. Maybe one day but it may take me a while to figure out how to use it.
Adobe Lightroom is a good first step, and a good bit cheaper than Photoshop.
thought I recognized this bridge – nice but I still like the other one without peeps
if you are there again I would like to see a photo of the statue’s faces taken from below but only if you have a great sky background – at least that is what I am thinking looking at this photo
