Finally I made it! Prague, the fabled city with its rich history, stunning gothic architecture (including the iconic Charles Bridge) and immensely photogenic transport system. Relatively cheap, too. (No wonder it’s the home of countless stag-dos.) I had wanted to visit for years. Fortunately my three-day visit there last month was not an anti-climax. I was especially looking forward to taking to the streets with my camera. Having attended an extremely helpful street photography workshop with Brian Lloyd-Duckett back in January, and read his useful guide to taking photographs in Prague, I was confident of getting one or two nice shots. It’s only as I’ve looked back on what I took that I have realised that it includes many photographs that I probably wouldn’t have taken a year ago. Whilst I still have a long way to go, I can certainly see that I am growing in the skill, and this gives me encouragement to keep taking to the streets and try things out. Below is the pick of the bunch. Photos of Vienna, where I visited after Prague, will follow shortly.
