Hej Lars,
Jag visste inte att det var så här fin utsikt från "Ginger och Fred". Det är en praktfull syn, så inte konstigt att Prag har blivit en av Europas populäraste turiststäder. (Ölet och maten lockar nog också många.) Den trevligaste delen av bilden är för mig faktiskt alla träden och de många små båtarna på floden. Färgerna och ljuset är också väldigt trevliga.
Hälsningar,
Gert

Goedenavond Lars,

Heel mooi panorama beeld genomen boven het water, met veel groen langs de overs.
Natuurlijk eenmaal dat men kijkt boven de stad zien we de mooie toren van de kathedraal.
Prachtig foto werk, bedankt.

Groeten uit Oost-Vlaanderen,
John

Hi Lars,

You have captured well the movement of the boats on the river. The point of view is showing the details of the buildings. The light is making the colors to stand out. Have a nice day.

Hallo Lars,
Ik wist niet dat de Dancing House een bar had op een hogere verdieping die je kon bezoeken.
Bovendien ben ik heel erg verrast door het prachtige zicht dat je van daar hebt.
Eerlijk gezegd, het biedt één van de mooiste panorama's van Praag.
Dit moet ik onthouden mocht ik nog ooit eens in Praag komen.
De foto oogt heel mooi met zijn verschillende niveaus in blauw, rood, groen en opnieuw blauw.
De vele bootjes zijn mooi verspreid over het water en de Praagse burcht torent indrukwekkend boven de stad uit.
Vele groeten, Paul

Hi Lars
You've picked out all the wonderful colours of lively Prague, brilliant take of this iconic city - a city like a fairy tale...
Best regards

hello lars, I didn't know that it was possible to go to the top of the Dancing House. You had a fantastic view from there. Magnificent composition. Nice vessels on the Vltava. Superb colours and sharpness.
Best regards MAlgo

Hi Lars,
So beautiful panorama well taken from this Glass Bar. Pleasant view, beautiful sunny light, perfect for the colors rendering, a beautiful town, so photogenic, tfs with your series.

Hello Lars,

Tis is a well chosen viewpoint because you can sandwich the warm details of the city buildings between the blue of the river and the blue of the sky. The warm/cool contrasts really stand out.
We can just see the bridge, with its towers, a good lead to the closest of the huge, multi-storeyed buildings and a precursor to the tall towers of the cathedral.

My warm regards,
Bev :-)

Hej Lars,

A terrific elevated view from the top of the dancing house. I like the intense blue colour of the reflected skylight in the water. Good sharpness and framing. Tfs!

Hello Lars,
Who wouldn't be dancing with a view like that.
'Dancing' on top of the world .... with a complete scenery of Prague :-)
From the tranquillity of the river with all 'shapes and sizes' boats , the bridge cutting through the trees with the interesting 'red roofs' skyline , a straight row of modern buildings ..... to top off the iconic Cathedral against the clear blue sky ( as usual ).
An astonishing scenic scene seen from the glass bar.
Very well captured picture.
Tfs, Loong

Hi Lars,
fantastic panoramic view of Prague. That would be a perfect angle for a blue hour photo as well with so much water in the foreground.
The cathedral dominates the skyline.
Very impressive!
Reading your note I realised that you mention most names in two languages Vltava is Czech name but also used in English, and you give German name in brackets, while later you do the English first and Czech in the brackets :)
Excellent quality work,
M

Dag Lars
Non wonder why the 'Dancers' buildings swirl frenetically, to the point of twisting; The beauty of the city scape located at their feet is quite electrifying!!
I enlarged and noticed four amphibious cars in the right-hand side of your picture; could they be only standard pedalos disguised like so.
Tot ziens

adramad (68174) 2021-03-05 10:54

Hi Lars.
Wonderful panoramic with the river Vltava with a beautiful blue color and abundant trees, while we see a part of the city and in the background on the hill the impressive construction of the cathedral and palaces.
Great color that highlights the beauty of the image.
Very well managed both the brightness and the sharpness of the image.
Nice work. That we enjoy.
Have a nice day.
Very best regards.
Luis.
