Photographer’s Note
Olomouc is a city with a bit more than 100.000 inhabitants situated in Moravia region. City looks like a little forgotten by tourists but is really interesting. It has some specific atmosphere and a lot of interesting sights. Its old city is the second largest historical monuments cluster in the Czech Republic, after of course Prague.
Olomouc Town Hall, completed in 1444, was built originally as two gothic buildings. The further construction in the 15th century was done in late gothic style, when the third floor was added. A later reconstruction in Renaissance style was in the 17th century when a renaissance portal and stairways was add. At the town hall is located one of the most famous Olomouc attraction – an astronomical clock.

Wow! What a wonderful composition of interesting buildings. I love the multitude of shapes that are created in this photo. The buildings are a little and a bit more contrast would have been nicer, but these are easy things to change.
Thanks for sharing, and keep them coming!
