Some new photos

I had some time to process a few more of my shots from Europe last year.
This time I tackled some of the Prague shots that I was meaning to do a long time ago.

Prague is an amazing city in terms of photography. There is so much to shoot there. Old buildings, trams, subway stations, the castle and the incredible atmosphere at night.
The city is lit in a very curious way that gives it a very medieval atmosphere once the sun has set.
I cannot wait to go back there as there is so much more wanting to be photographed!

Here is a start with the first couple of images from Prague.
