Mohrenstrasse, Edited Version, Koln (Cologne), North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany, 2012

This was one of the side streets near the St. Gereon church. It was unclear whether it was really worn, or scraped clean awaiting repaving, but you could see the cobblestones underneath the blacktop.

This was another shot taken in Haje. There was a certain about of snow still coming down when I took this, creating a slight haze.

My next photographic trip was to Modrany, although for this one I didn't take my bike, even though I had originally planned to. Instead, I went by bus, since it would be easier. This was when I was at the Opatov bus stop, and I had both my Nikon N80 and my cameraphone. I had seen shots like this on Flickr before, so I decided to experiment, and this was the result.

I just posted this shot because I liked the composition. That's about it, really.

Prior to the 19th Century, there was almost a brewery for every major pub in every city in Central Europe, with only industrialisation changing the custom. In well-preserved cities like Prague, however, the buildings have been preserved and kept in use as pubs, hotels, and other businesses. I'm not aware, however, if this one is a hotel, a pub, both, or something else.

I think that compositionally, even though you can see that this pump is wet and functioning, this shot is more pleasing to the eye.

This shot also works quite well in black and white, so I converted it even though it's a cheesy third-rate cameraphone image.

Handpumps like this, dating to the days before central plumbing in all buildings, often still work, as you can see from the wetness on this one. These can be found everywhere in the city centre of Prague, and recommending any particular neighborhood wouldn't make sense, as there are a few of them almost everywhere.

Blacksmith at Mustek, Vaclavske Namesti, Prague, CZ, 2009

Folk crafts of various kinds can be found in many city centres in the Czech Republic, and even Prague is no exception. This was a blacksmith, most visibly making swords, but also making a full range of other iron souvenirs.

This was a side street in Litomysl which I found while walking around looking for lunch.

If I'm not mistaken this street is Swietojanska, although I could be mistaken so I'm just going to call it a "street scene."

Here's the prettier side of Bednarska, with a pretty touristy streetlamp. It makes me want to throw up. Just kidding. :-)

This is the small street of Panska in Olomouc. I took this photo solely because I liked how it looked, and now I still like it, so I've posted it here.

This is Tyrell Street in Bradford (thanks to Lordrich for the name). The ornate building on the end is the former wool exchange, now a bookshop.

28 Rijna In The Sun, Picture 2, Prague, CZ, 2007

Jon Searles has posted:

Same as the previous shot, I took this one for the sunlight, worried that my camera had malfunctioned on the first shot. In reality, this shot is more notable for the shadows in the foreground and the apparent light leak in the upper left. That light leak comes and goes on my Lomo 135, and I have yet to pinpoint the cause.

28 Rijna is not an address, but a street named for a date, the 28th of October. I took this photo because I liked the way the blazing sun that day had illuminated the street, and the action.
