European Highlights: Český Krumlov

On the road to Prague, we stopped at the most wondrous small town 'Mini Prague' Český Krumlov. Staying in the old town (best way to experience these small towns). Although a little tourist packed during the day, as the evening went grew old, the streets became more and more empty. Despite the lack of night-life, this quaint little town is full of soul and rich history. Of course, the classic medieval architecture and cobblestone lined streets.

Pano from up top. Early morning.

 

Ideal spot to see over the old town.

Dusk Pano.

3 Amigos. On the road to Prague.

European Highlights: Kraków

Kraków being a little different to the other Eastern European cities I had previously visited. Obsessed with history and architecture.

Double exposure, whilst wandering the streets. Soon after arriving.

Street Life, double exposure.

Architecture from a by-gone era. Pretty much my expectations were well and truly met. Exactly the kind of design I was looking for.

Dusk, often the best light for that cinematic light. A bit of drama.

Nowa Huta, former Soviet era Steel Works and Town. Triple exposure, facing opposite ways. Different timings, ND and wide for the clouds, hence the unusual 'x' pattern and regular exposure for the car/ crossing section. And 1 bonus exposure for the tram station bottom right.

Main Square. Meeting friends for lunch.

European Highlights: Bucharest

Bucharest, certainly exceeded my expectations. Although probably not on most of our 'to see' lists, I enjoyed it's uniqueness. 

Parliament Building, Pano.

Inside of the Parliament Building. Grand indeed. (Blended photo from 2 to obtain the mix of exposure.)

Kind of Paris (in the East). Daily life wanderings and happenings, down town, mid afternoon.

Cafe Alley Ways

Transit by train. Black and white wide sweep shots such as these are the spice of life.

Imprint. When film produces something completely unexpected.
