Nice shot.
My memories of Prague are indeed always of the the castle, the Old Town Square and the Charles Bridge

Such a fairytale castle, excellent choice.

Many choices in Prague! And so beautiful at night.

Ineke said...

It would be either the bridge or the castle ;)

Waldo Oiseau said...

Yep! That's the place you always hear about. It's so impressive!

I'd have gone for Charles Bridge myself or, even better, the view from the garden bar at Lavka that takes in both the bridge and the castle!

What a lovely choice, and a beautiful photo!

Castles are something we aren't accustomed to seeing in the U.S., so I really enjoy the castle photos from other countries.

It looks large. Very nice night photo.

Beautiful night shot of the castle over the water scene! The castle almost looks to be in B&W, like so many of your wonderful street shots of Prague. But, the golden tones below near the water show it is a color shot. Have a great weekend!

Beautiful photo as are all of your photos.

Excellent choice. Yes, the castle holds a special magic. One of my favorite places to photograph in Praha was the terraced gardens.
