This was another shot I took of the alleyway from earlier, taken after walking through the doorway, showing the buttresses.

The Holy Trinity Column was constructed in 1716-1754 to commemorate a plague in 1714-1716. It is considered the largest Baroque sculpture in the Czech Republic, and is on the UNESCO World Heritage List.

This was my third shot of Dolni Namesti, with the tower of the radnice visible in the background.

Dolni Namesti actually has more to see in it than the main square, if you know where to look.

This building is called the "deer" or "jelen" building, and is on a corner in Dolni Namesti.

A new bell had also just been delivered when I visited, I think for the Radnice, or town hall. The original photo that I took was decent, but needed to be cropped, so instead I added vignetting in iPhoto.

Doorway, Olomouc, Moravia (CZ), 2008

I unfortunately have forgotten the name of this street, or perhaps alley might be just as good a word, as buttresses cross the street. There was a bit of construction being done on this portal or doorway of sorts.

DPMO #181 at Obchodni Dum Prior, Olomouc, Moravia (CZ), 2008

Prior is served by tram service, and come to think of it, this is one of my first good photos of an Olomouc tram. The city does indeed have a fleet of these Tatra T3's, in several variants, as well as some Skoda 03T's.

This was one of the few good angles that I could get of this church, which was built in 1257, but rebuilt many times due to fire damage. It still has its medieval look, though.

Ulice 28 Rijna, Olomouc, Moravia (CZ), 2008

This was taken during my second trip to Olomouc, a bus trip that I took with UJOP during the summer. This is one of the narrow streets of Olomouc that, surprisingly, is somewhat of a shopping street. The largest shopping center on the street is Prior, which is on the left in this picture. It's a Communist-era building which has recieved heavy criticism not just for its dated design, but also because it blocks the view of the neighboring, and historic, Kostel sv. Moritz.

This was my second shot, taken from Hradcanske Namesti. Every now and then, I can get one of these shots where the cloud cover at the end of the day illuminates a particular part of the landscape.

On this particular day (I've forgotten the exact date), I had excellent light, so I was able to get some great shots around Prague. I took this at Narodni Muzeum.
