I had to. We should have Prague Fridays, or something.
So, the (c) on the scan is 2012, but I took the photo on BW film in late December, 1990. It's one of my favorites - probably the favorite - of my own pictures. Although, it's not the one I get the most print requests for from friends & family. It's funny how your own memories influence your artistic impressions.
I’ve been to Prague several times. It really is a beautiful city.
What amazes me is how much it changed.
When I went, it was a black city: all of the buildings were dark gray, because if the centuries of coal and smog. Then Europe went through a period of cleaning, and buildings you thought were made of dark stone, it turns out, were actual white! Or ecru, or some light stone. Utterly changes the feel of the city.
Inside of what??
It was a play on the post immediately prior (time-wise) to mine, by another user, titled "Outside Prague."
Although the mist makes it look far away, St. Vitus is really only a short walk from where this was taken.
Ah gotcha!
