Prague XVIII: Into the Day


The only way to take photos in Prague sans throngs of tourists is to get up mighty early in the morning. We did this one morning and it was well worth it! The only people out and about were the cleaning crews and fellow photographers (and the occasional jogger). Here are some views from, and on, the Charles Bridge.

Prague XVI: Růžena Zátková Art Opening


My great grandmother's art opening took place in the Prague Castle. What an incredible room! I was amazed at how many people showed up!









The curator, Alena, gets ready to make her speech.






Two of my relatives watch the ceremonies.












I loved this kid with his suit, long hair, and camera. He is clearly a natural!
