Shoes On Wire On Letna, Prague, CZ, 2009

09 Dec 2009 528
What really constitutes Letna, or Letna Park, is a matter of definitions. Some people only count the big open space on the south side of Letenske Sady, and some people count the whole park. This is on the north side, next to the famous "Metronome" sculpture. In fact, the wire that these sneakers are hung on supplies electricity to the Metronome.

Clouds Over Bohemia, Picture 3, CZ, 2008

....and this one. The main difference between these shots, as far as I can tell, is that this one has this weird effect created by the blurred tree in the foreground.

Clouds Over Bohemia, Picture 2, CZ, 2008

This was one of several photos I shot of the landscape and sky on my way to Kutna Hora. I tried to pick the two best ones, so I chose this one.....

Sunlight On Buildings, Na Prikope, Prague, CZ, 200…

17 May 2009 259
I just couldn't resist this shot, with the combination of the architecture, the sunlight, the shadows, and the sky. I may work on this one in Gimp a little bit more, but this is the most basic version for now...

Radnice and Town Square (Smetanovo Namesti???), Li…

26 Mar 2008 239
Here's a larger view looking away from the Smetana statue, although I'm unaware if this whole square is counted as Smetanovo Namesti. That building with the tower is the Radnice, or town hall. The spectacular cloud formation is partly an accident resulting from the heavy editing I had to do in Gimp to compensate for the terrible scan.

Sky Over Liberec, Liberecky Kraj, Bohemia(CZ), 200…

I took this from the church. If that's a clue as to which church it is, then great. I decided to upload this for the sky, though, not the buildings.

Here's an alternate to the other Lomo that I just posted, with another larger, but more moderate light leak.

Sunset and Clouds, Sidliste Haje, Prague, CZ, 2007

04 Dec 2007 340
I know that I've got a lot of these taken in Haje, but Haje does get some pretty impressive sunsets, so I've done a lot of shots there. This one is unfortunately marred by that light leak down the middle. Lomo issues again.

Swiss Landscape, Picture 4, Switzerland, 1998

26 Nov 2007 383
Although it wasn't sunrise or sunset, because I was shooting directly into the sun on this one, and the sun was behind a cloud, it gives that impression, I think. This is one of my favorite all time landscapes.

I really liked the way the sun was illuminating the trees, buildings and so on with the sky in this spectacular a state, so I had to get this shot....even if many other photographers on Flickr could beat this easily. :-)

Clouds On Grosser Priel, Welser Hutte, The Alps, A…

01 Sep 2007 397
After hiking part of the way up Grosser Priel in the dark and the rain the first day (or night, rather), and in the daylight the second day (not the original plan but...), we slept in Welser Hutte, waking up to this spectacular scene of clouds lying low on what are by no means low mountains. My friends climbed to the summit on this day, although I had to give up rather quickly for safety reasons, as I'm no expert, so Welser Hutte was again a refuge for me. We climbed down immediately afterwards, in better weather and in daylight.

Sunset From Stare Radnice, Picture 2, Prague, CZ,…

This is my second sunset shot from the Stare Radnice shoot, with St. Vitus Cathedral in the background.

View From Knob Hill, Picture 1, San Francisco, CA,…

I took this from the top of Knob Hill in San Francisco, on my first (and for the moment only) trip to California. What's most striking about this photo to me is not so much the view (the detail is limited by the small size of the print I scanned AND the crude camera), but the massive low-lying cloud layer and fog which was enveloping S.F. on this very early morning. It was like this every morning, and people say that it's normal out there.

Here's a shot taken slightly later, as the fog began to clear, which gives a much prettier view of the city itself, of course.

This is more like Picture 1, but it has better composition, I think, incorporating the tourist facilities like a brochure. :-) Actually, at a normal time of day, and not super-early in the morning as here, it would probably be much more crowded, especially with cars, and not as pretty.

San Francisco Bay, San Francisco, CA, USA, 1993

01 Sep 2007 251
This is, according to rdsadie, a "beach area between the Presidio (on the left) and the marina. I didn't remember too much about it since I took it 1993 and uploaded it in 2007!!! :-)

Steps And Sky, Sidliste Haje, Prague, CZ, 2007

01 Sep 2007 345
This was a strictly experimental shot that I took in Sidliste Haje, like so many of my experimental shots there. I had to bracket this to get it right, and I think I ended up settling on f16 and 1/125, although I could be misremembering. I don't keep a notebook for the Lomo.

JFK Approach, Long Island, NY, USA, 2007

01 Sep 2007 381
I have surprisingly few photos of New York City and its surroundings considering how often I fly through there. I also grew up regularly travelling through New York City, although I've never lived there.
