Photographer’s Note

Taking an original pic of Most Karlova in Prague is a bit of a challenge as it is one of the most photopgraphed bridges in the world.

This one works for me because of hte diagonals the lighteffect behindt the statue and the trace of the airplane.

PS: Contasted in curves and a slight colour saturation to get a graphic image.

Simple and great! The simplicity is great cause of having just basicaly two colors in the photo. The contrast is great and the sky has very nice color also.
The light coming from beyond the statue makes it also really nice.
I could say that it's a great silhouete!
Nice work

Striking shot due to the significant contrast between black and blue. The sun halo and the blue shades work perfectly well. Trace of airplane would have been in accordance with your title if not appearing on the left side of the statue. But that's really minor! An original and powerful shot, Mikkel.

Very powerful image! The light burst behind the monument is perfectly placed.... and the white plume on the sky is fantastic! Great timing for the shot!

Absolutely perfect. Who could ignore the power of the Saints.....You should have cloned out the stripe behind the Saint.
