This is a detail shot of one of the trees on the path.

This was also in Sidliste Haje, on the same path where I've taken a lot of other photos.

Snow in Haje, Edited Version, Prague, CZ, 2010

There was a surprisingly heavy amount of snow in Prague during November and December, and so I naturally tried to get a few photos of it. This was in Sidliste Haje.

Fall Colors, Cercany, Bohemia (CZ), 2010

08 Dec 2010 1 338
This is my favorite shot of the bunch, especially since it's one of the few shots that seemed to escape the scanner trouble that I've been having. This was taken in Cercany. I mainly like the vivid colors in this one, which may be down to the fact that I was shooting Ektar through an uncoated Zeiss lens.

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.

Christmas Decorations Outside Bata, Prague, CZ, 20…

Bata is one of the oldest shoe store chains in the Czech Republic, and I think this is their biggest and most important store, on Vaclavske Namesti in Prague (if I'm wrong on these points, someone please let me know). It's getting close to Christmas now, of course, so there are Christmas decorations all up and down Vaclavske Namesti.

One of the busiest Christmas setups is in Staromestske Namesti, the Old Town Square of Prague, where a stage has been set up (out of the picture to the right) for folk dancing and music.

Christmas Tree at Kotva, Prague, CZ, 2006

01 Sep 2007 360
Kotva is a large (supposedly Russian-owned) department store near Namesti Republiky in Prague, and they now have Christmas lights all over the whole store. This Christmas tree, off to one side, is in an odd spot, though.

This is the Mustek end of Vaclavske Namesti, decorated for Christmas of 2006, although Christmas is still more than a week away. The purple lights on the tree are an original touch, I think.

Checkpoint Charlie Sign, Berlin, Germany, January…

This was the warning sign used during the Cold War to formally inform people crossing the border that they were entering the American sector. Although it's obviously obsolete now, it's been kept up as part of the overall preservation effort on Checkpoint Charlie.

This was taken from the western side of Checkpoint Charlie. When you face east, you see the poster of the East German soldier, and when you look west you see the poster of the American soldier, both posters being on the same post.

This was my first ever photo of Checkpoint Charlie, taken from the Eastern side in January of 2007, when the Christmas tree was still up. This was the same trip during which I shot the other Ektachromes of the Brandenberger Tor and other landmarks.
