Great shot, Ken,

This is a fabulous presentation of Prague's many quiet back alleys. The black and white effect is very fitting for your image and the exposure and light management are exceptional. Great balance and symmetry provided by the individuals on each side of the road. Your timing here is impeccable: the fresh rain has given a beautiful shine to the cobblestone: an eye-catching effect! Well done and thanks for sharing.

All the best,

Brian

I like the choice of the black and white. It makes this picture very european. The road is made bright by the reflection on the wet floor, and this makes a sort of eye catching point ion the middle of the frame.
A good work
Regards Stefano
