Don’t forget to add a short background story for your entry with at least 30 words. I will then go through your submissions and upvote those that meet the requirements. Let me just remind you one more time that only personal images will be accepted in the challenge.

I am really happy to see more and more great photos being submitted to this challenge every day. Yesterday was no exception, we had several awesome entries featured in the photo challenge, including this impressive image taken by our regular contributor @swerdan with the following description:

This is a long exposure of the charles bridge near old town. I wanted tto try to make the bridge look empty so I set up a tripod and took a few 30 second exposures. If you look closely you can see some ghosting in it from people walking too slow.

I decided to come back here for a day to celebrate Steem crossing $8!!! I could say I'm smiling in this photo because I knew that would happen, but that wouldn't be true. I'm smiling because I loved that incredible view of Prague behind me!

So now I know what you look like Matt, no hiding from now on:)....lol....

Prague Fairytale.

St. Vitus, Vltava and Charles Bridge. We have spent several great days with my wife in winter Prague. What a beautiful city! It is really hard to make two steps without shooting. This evening was especially beautiful. Blue hour, wonderful architecture, and the city lights. Just magic!

Wow, epic photo! Well done.

Welcome to my challenge! What an epic pic. I know those from Shutterstock, lol..... I am sure I will see more from you... Welcome to Steemit, you have made a grand entry:)... Have a great day. Tomas

Thank you! You are hosting the great contests!

The most difficult during sunset and the subsequent twilight is to catch time in different places. I want to be at once in several shooting points at the same time. Often you have to run after this holding a tripod. Only this way there is a chance to make several photos at one day.
Prague evening

What a beautiful image! Thank you so much for sharing with everyone. Tomas

Thanks for the love again @czechglobalhosts. When taking the picture I wasn't sure how it was going to turn out and was really happy when I got home and I hit one that was really good.

So today I am have a picture of the backside of Prague Castle. Which is located at one of the highest points in the city which makes it visible almost everywhere you are. There is also a mini cameo of @austiclees on the right hand side. The architecture in Prague is just amazing. So many great buildings to see.

If anyone else likes my photos I post 1-2 extra a day on my blog. :)

Thanks for viewing everyone.

Wow fantastic photo. One of the best I've seen of the castle.

Thank you so much. It means a lot when other appreciate my pictures.

Once again an amazing entry from you! Thank you so much for that. Tomas

I'm glad I can keep presenting quality pictures. Thank you for the chances to post.

Astronomical clock, Prague

Prague's infamous astronomical clock is quite impressive if you consider that it was constructed in the 15th century. By today's standards, the hourly show of the clock is not so impressive though; Way funnier are the disappointed faces of the hordes of tourists who are gathering every hour to witness bell ringing and the figures turning.

Your picture is better than mine!

Your picture is great too @verdanas.

What a great close up! Love it!

Really love Krumlov too.
I don't know how often I have been there already, because it's so close to the Austrian border.
Here is a nice picture from a visit in summer.

It's on my todo - list to go through Krumlov by boat too, like so many other people.

Surely an epic place to visit! Thank you for your post. Tomas


This photo has been taken in Hradec Kralove, in a bar, 2017, during my winter vacation. It presents a beatiful part of your beer culture ; when you order a beer in a bar, you get a small sheet of paper. Each line represents one beer. When you want to pay, you just show the bartender this sheet and he calculates your bill. I also love the fact that bartenders take care of you and ask you if you want another beer, before you even finish that one.

LOL! Actually I do like your entry:).....

And I like those Czech contests hosted by u ;)
Keep up the good job

This is a view of one of the towers of the Jesuit College, next to the St. Barbara's Church in Kutna Hora. The Jesuit College is the second largest gallery in Czech Republic and was build in 1667!

Thank you for your entry Jaco!

Yesterday I showed a photo of the façade of the St. Vitus Cathedral at Prague. Today I show a photo of its interior, more precisely its main nave. It is a magnificent Gothic cathedral, in the image you can see the the bell-shaped columns and the vaults that are so typical of the Gothic style.

Prague 7, Metronome

I snapped this photo of the famous metronome in Prague 7 while hanging out and jamming with some friends at dusk. There were skaters everywhere, the smell of cannabis in the air, and no cops.

Tahnk you for your participation. Have a great day. Tomas
