Hello fellow Steemians,
I hope you are all having a great weekend! :) As usually, I am here with my daily photo challenge where you can submit your personal images from your travels to Prague and other locations in the Czech Republic in the comment section below.
The best 15 entries of the day will get my upvote. I will then pick the absolute winner of the day from these 15 photos. The winning photo will be awarded with a bigger upvote and it will also be featured as the cover image for the challenge post the next day to give the author of the winning shot some more exposure and publicity.
Don’t forget to add a short background story for your entry with at least 30 words and let me just remind you one more time that only personal images will be accepted in the challenge.
There were many great entries submitted in the yesterday Prague/Czech Republic photo challenge and I had a hard time picking the best one. After a deliberate consideration, however, I decided to choose the following entry by @libork:
Fisherman at Žermanice Dam. It is Saturday so let's leave Prague... The Žermanice dam is built on the Lučina River and has a surface of 2.48 km². In the background, you can see the silhouette of Lysá hora, with 1323 m (some sources mention 1324 m) the highest mountain of Moravian-Silesian Beskids.

Today, we will look again at Prague and specifically on Radnické schody. These stairs connect the streets Ke Hradu and Loretánská. They are about 100 meters long, have 127 steps and overcome a 30 meter elevation. At the bottom there are two Baroque sculptures. The statue of St. Josef with Jesus and left statue of St. Jana Nepomucký
Wow, epic photo. I love night photo's like this... awesome with no people. ;)
Thank you, it is not possible to make such a photo in Prague at night. It is only early in the morning when everyone is asleep.
Fair enough. ;)
Well, we sure do have a cover image for today's contest! That is truly stunning. Thank you so much for your continued support and contribution.
Church of St. Hedvika located on the St. Hedvika Square in Opava. Designed by the renonwed Silesian architect Leopolod Bauer, this church is considered one of the greatest examples of modernist architecture in the city and all Silesia. It was built between 1933 and 1937.
Nice warm colors + interesting architecture!
Na většině tvých fotek máš nepěkný světlý obrys kolem objektů. Působí to jako by jsi objekt, nebo mraky do fotky přidával po vyfocení :) Pokud jde o lokální úpravu expozice tak si to chce dávat pozor na to kde mažeš štětcem, aby to bylo vidět co nejmíň.
Jestli to nebude sv. aura ;-)
Štětcem nic nedělám, ten obrys vzniká při ztmavení světlých míst a navýšení kontrastu. Používám ten nejobyčejnější editor co je součástí Windows a fotím zatím jen mobilem, takže mé fotky je třeba brát jako amatérské :) Už mi tu ale pár místních profíků řeklo, že na to, že jsou to mobilovky, některé nevypadají úplně zle, tak snad to není taková hrůza. Ale díky za připomínku, tady na Steemitu je kritika poměrně vzácná :)
Pokud se má komunita někam posunout tak by si měla pomáhat a já můžu maximálně pomáhat kritikou. I s mobilem se dají udělat hezký fotky, jen je potřeba přesněji exponovat než třeba na zrcadlovce. Většina novějších mobilů má v modu fotoaparátu expozimetr, kterým si doladíš expozici tak aby jsi neměl extrémně tmavý a světlý místa. Pak už nemáš tolik práce na PC a vypadá to ve výsledku líp.
V pořádku, já to beru :) Jak říkám, na této platformě se kritika ze zjevných důvodů moc nenosí, takže je třeba si jí vážit, zvlášť té konstruktivní. Dneska zkusím svou soutěžní fotku upravit trochu jinak.
hey, i do recognize this one, haha!
Rudolfinium - located in the center of Prague, in the square of Jan Palach. This building of the Prague Philharmonic, built in the middle of the twentieth century in the style of neo-Renaissance. It hosts concerts, competitions, festivals and a variety of exhibitions.
Flaming Gothic
The fiery gothic of Prague can not leave you indifferent. Slender tight lines of medieval architecture take you up to heaven. The chords of Bach's music are exploding and you fly upward. Yuor head turns off and it all catches your breath. You're in heaven ...

On this photo you can see why it is called the city of spires! I took this on our very first day in Prague, strolling the vibrant streets with my wife Riana. The trails from the airplanes looked like lasers just after sunset.
Theater in Vinohrady, Náměstí mirů, Vinohrady, Praha
The theater was built in 1907 as a neo-Renaissance building. Just like the National Theater. But here we can see Art Nouveau elements ...
All theaters from 1860 to 1918 are quite similar. Notice the number of exits. At the beginning of this period, it was still lit by candles and it was going to gas and later to electricity. There have been some great theater fires.
Therefore, strict fire regulations have been issued. This look of the building was almost obligatory.
On a hill in the vicinity of Spilberk Castle, in Brno, is one of the most excellent works of art that I have seen, and it is made with steel tubes, and it is the statue of the famous Jan Skácel, outstanding poet , journalist and essayist there was who nicknamed him as the prince of Czech poetry or the poet of silence. For me this country has the best works of art that exist, for its originality.
My love for trains influenced this amazing shot. I intentionally targeted a moving tram at this angle. Half train, half the beautiful view of the prague city. My visit to prague has been an awesome experience which still ring a bell in my ears.
Hello Prague, you are beautiful😊
You love for trams does reflect in the picture. It does look great!
Thank you @czechglobalhosts
Hluboká nad Vltavou Chateau is a magnificent exterior and the interiors can not be ashamed. The castle offers up to 6 circuits, but only one is open in the spring. The guide was knowledgeable, it was just a bit slower
