The lady in the window

Cesky Krumlov is as close to a fairy tale world I have ever visited. And then, you suddenly see...Rapunzel...may not be, exactly. But her forlorn look could not be ignored by my camera. Who is she waiting for?

Cesky Krumlov, a Fairyland!

I have never seen anything as much from a fairy tale as Cesky Krumlov. You don't need the artificiality of Disney to transport you to a magic land. This was real and this was a dream!

Prague before the storm

It was a rainy evening. Incredibly crowded on the top floor of the Karlov bridge tower, Prague. Everybody wanted "the shot". I gave up fighting with the enthusiasts and instead of taking a photo of the iconic bridge, escaped to the back, just to breathe. The sky opened up for a moment and my camera was happy.

Strahov Library

Considered to be one of the most beautiful libraries in the world, Strahov Library, Prague. It is located inside the Strahov Monastery. This is the Philosophical Hall. Built in the 1780s. One needs prior reservation to enter, which I did not have. Shot for about 30mins standing outside the door. As painful as jostling with the small crowd at the door was, the beauty of this hall was so mesmerizing, it was worth every moment. As this photo is about intricate details, I will recommend clicking on it to enlarge in order to view.
