People and sunset, a photo from Stredocesky, Bohemia

Photographer's Note

Kladno is a statutory town in Central Bohemia, it has about 69 thousand [1] inhabitants and is thus the largest city in the Central Bohemia Region and the thirteenth largest city in the Czech Republic. It is known for its black coal mining in the past and the education of hockey players.
Kladno is located 25 km northwest of Prague in the Kladno Chalkboard, which represents the western part of the Prague Plateau, on the border with Křivoklátská Highlands. The southern and western parts of the city are situated on a relatively flat territory forming a divide between the Vltava and Berounka; towards the northeast, several shallow valleys begin to descend from here. There are no larger watercourses in the city, only a few streams. The most important is the Dřetovický stream, which runs through the branches of the Kladno - city train station, the Stenštejn valley, the former brewery and the forest of Dlouhá Borovina. Other streams, which belong to the Vltava river basin, are the Týnecký stream (spring in the village of Motyčín) and Lidický (source in the village of Kročehlavy). The Rozdělovský brook belongs to the Berounka basin. The divorce is approximately to the area of Doberska and Vašíčkova streets. Kladno is almost entirely surrounded by woods - the furthest edge of the Křivoklát and Džbánu wooded areas. In most of the city's territory and in its northern to western neighborhoods, the depth of the carbon black coal deposit is now partly extracted. The landscape is marked by the traces of the mining and industrial activities of the past two centuries - the overgrown heaps of mine dust and iron slag are not overlooked. Likewise, the Thuringian pond under the Serbian village, which after the fall of part of the territory (caused by mining activities) and the flood of the so called Panská cesta acquired the popular name of Flooding.

Hello Tomasz,
What a fun idea, taken a nice moment with the glow and silhouettes upon the wall. By itself the surrounding would not have any stunning effect, but that picture in mind - done "justice" to the neighborhood.
Regards,
Ike

Hello Tomas,
You observed this light and shadows well and had a good idea for an original photo. Some of the surrounding view is less interesting, so a tighter crop could have been considered.
Regards,
Gert

Hello Thomasz,

sophistically taken: human writings on a profane wall. This requires a good perception. I wonder if cropping the image's lower part to avoid most of the pavement would have even improved your capture?

Hello Tomas,

It seem a small group people that burn as silhouette on the wall.
Perfect perspective and depth picture.
Composition and presentation are superb.
Very well done.

Kindest regards,
John.

Hello Thomas,
This is a delightful photo of (mainly) shadows from Kladno. Being an enthusiast for minimalism, it would have sufficed if you had just taken the shadows.
Happy Holidays,
MT

hello Tomas, Interesting composition with the shadows of the people on the nicely lit wall. well seen and presented.
But why such a big photo? Better is to post 1600 pixels wide. Than it uploads faster and one can see the whole composition in the screen on beta site, without opening in the new window.

Best regards MAlgo

Hello Tomasz,

I like the ethereal shadows on the wall that add a nice graphic element. Good sharpness & superb warm cold color contrasts. Good repetition of the flagstone pavement patterns. Tfs!
