Week 50 - To Prague...

One of my ways to the office. By train, conductor checking tickets. People reading books, chatting on mobile phones, talking to each other, sleeping or just sitting. Calm moment...

Street 50/52 - To Prague...

Week 49 - Bon appetite

Going almost to the end of this year, I'm trying to catch time, finish all my arrears. So the project 52. Photos are already taken, but selection, development and publishing is delayed...

Street 49/52 - Bon appetite

Week 48 - Xmas joy

Advent Sunday, The Boom and Beatles revival, little girl dancing. Nice and pleasant.

Street 48/52 - Xmas joy

Week 47 - Beware, say cheese

A little surprise in Ikea. Young man drinking coffee, surprised by someone holding camera.

Street 47/52 - Beware, say cheese

Week 46 - Two steps ahead of the car

Again in the shopping centre. You can find not only people inside, but also the whole streets, including cars :-)

Street 46/52 - Two steps ahead of the car

Week 45 - Talking to each other

A moment of relaxation between skating...

Street 45/52 - Talking to each other

Week 44 - Pensive

What he's thinking about? Any job task? An upcoming meeting? Something private? Hard to decide. On the other hand, the woman next to him is definitely planning, isn't she?

Street 44/52 - Pensive

Week 43 - Cafe in

Through the window.

Street 43/52 - Cafe in

Week 42 - Vojtěch

Vojtěch 12 dg and Vojtěch 15 yo

Street 42/52 - Vojtěch

Week 41 - Another rest between shopping

... and another peaceful time at the mall.

Street 41/52 - Another rest between shopping

Week 40 - Relaxed between shopping

Shopping may be very exhausting ...

Street 40/52 - Relaxed between shopping

Week 39 - Not alone

I saw this couple of elderly people, sitting together and watching timbersports. They were not only sitting shoulder to shoulder, but they noticed each other, speaking and listening. They were not alone, they were together.

Street 39/52 - Not alone

Week 38 - Slope or adolescence?

It was quite easy to find proper picture for 38th week. On the other hand, to find proper title was a pain. Two people gave very different points of view. 42 years old woman ... a slope. 11 years old boy ... adolescence. And what is your opinion? Which title suits better to the picture?

Street 38/52 - Slope or adolescence?

Week 37 - RunCzech

RunCzech in Usti nad Labem, one of runners caught on the picture. Of course, as my daughter run too I took several (tens :-)) of her photos as well.

Street 37/52 - RunCzech

Week 36 - Re-fresh yourself

I've been thinking for a long time whether to publish this photo. It seems to me a bit controversial. Might be true, might be wrong, here it is...

Street 36/52 - Re-fresh yourself

Week 35 - Thoughtful

Contrast again - light and dark. Older and young. Anyway, also the same - human, woman.

Street 35/52 - Thoughtful

Week 34 - X

The big "X".

Street 34/52 - X

Week 33 - Watch out

This contribution to my 52 project is obviously delayed. I was not able to choose between two images - one with good technical quality and this one, from my point of view, more interesting but taken against direct sun. Finally, here it is - woman having small dog on her shoulder. Or woman walking on main Prague's square dressed only in a bra. Depends on your eye :-)

Street 33/52 - Watch out

Week 32 - What can they see?

Kratochvíle is a nice castle in south Bohemia. Not only interior but also garden. Herbs, bushes, trees, flowers. And also water around the castle ... you can even see carps waiting for feeding close to surface.

Five girls, do you find them all?

Street 28/52 - On a perch :-)

Week 27 - Entering the picture

From outside ... entering the picture.

From the right ... to the left.

From shadow ... to sunny day.

Street 27/52 - Entering the picture

Week 26 - Nearby Powder Tower

Some of my colleagues dislike streets overcrowded by tourists in Prague. Me personally ... I like it. Full of inspiration, plenty of possibilities, almost no controversion. Just need to grasp the opportunity.

Taken nearby en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Powder_Tower.

Street 26/52 - Nearby Powder Tower

Week 25 - Tourists

Once again, my favorite street location - Wenceslas Square...

Street 25/52 - Tourists

Week 24 - Waiting for the train

A beautiful morning at the train station...

Street 24/52 - Waiting for the train

Week 23 - The future is here

A visit to the circus - is it our future? Or the future is here - passing a circus? What is our future?

Street 23/52 - The future is here

Week 22 - Inside and out, sitting and standing

Subway, people getting off it, getting in it. Sitting there and reading. Or just staring...,

Street 22/52 - Inside and out, sitting and standing

Week 21 - Terezin, washroom

My 11 years old daughter wanted to see how nacists handled with Jewish and other inconvenient people. So we visited Terezin, Jewish ghetto from WW2, a gateway to concentration camps... Sad and depressive experience.

Street 21/52 - Terezin, washroom

Week 20 - Waiting in two

Dog and his master ... or? Man and his leader?

Street 20/52 - Waiting in two

Week 19 - Da Vinci

Embraced by Da Vinci...

Street 19/52 - Da Vinci

Week 18 - Waiting for morning coffee

Young man waiting in the queue for his morning coffee. I see people looking forward to this "drug" everyday I commute to Prague. Sometimes I see myself in this queue as well :-)

Street 18/52 - Waiting for morning coffee

Week 17 - Move forward one step

Smile, walking hand by hand, talking each other, being together.

Street 17/52 - Move forward one step

Week 16 - Nothing on my mind

There were several interesting people sitting, staying or walking at the station. One of them, young man - I made 12 candid portaits of him. This one has been selected not only by me but also by my girlfriend :-)

Street 16/52 - Nothing on my mind

Week 15 - Escalators

5 hours before end of the week and I still made no photo ... 1 hour of browsing through shopping centre and finally ... 4 hours before end of the week I made it :-)

Street 15/52 - Escalators

Week 14 - In between

Between two other women, focused on other people, observing life. A bit dreamy look.

Street 14/52 - In between

Week 13 - Highkey

I focused today more on processing than street itself. This is the result - highkey picture (and once again proving today's world is obsessed with mobile phones).

Street 13/52 - Highkey

Week 12 - Oh really?

Discussion during a sport event...

Street 12/52 - Oh really?

Week 11 - Shopping day

I spent some time in shopping centre this week. In front of shoe store, probably father with his daughter waited for someone...

Street 11/52 - Shopping day

Week 10 - Keep smiling

The second with wide-angle lens ... and this is the result. People passing by a billboard.

Street 10/52 - Keep smiling

Week 9 - Mobile age

Typical behaviour for current ... mobile phones ... age :-(

Street 9/52 - Mobile age

Week 8 - Surprised?

Once in a long time, I decide to use subway. I don't like it. But anyway, it brings new and different possibilities for street photo. Like this one :-)

Street 8/52 - Surprised?

Week 7 - Evening walk

Even in the evening, in low light, it is possible to catch someone and draw her on the paper. Silhouette against the lamp. As you can see from my previous photos, I like this type of drawing :-)  Unfortunately, winter is going to its end and days become longer and longer (or fortunately?).

Street 7/52 - Evening walk

Week 6 - Left and right

Last week photo was taken in the last moment, on Sunday afternoon, during the visit of National Technical Museum. I took a rest, sat down in the chair and watched second side. This photo should evoke opposites - left and right, sitting and moving, sharp and blur, old and young, ...

Street 6/52 - Left and right

Week 5 - Diagonal

Geometry in photography...

Street 5/52 - Diagonal

Week 4 - Sunny darkness

Playing with lights and darks. Photographing against sun. Looking for shades. And finally ... creating contrast scene. Dark figure and light sky. Sun and shade. Grey building on the right side and gloss one on the left. Just fun.

Street 4/52 - Sunny darkness

Week 3 - Reading a book

This week, selection between two photos won this girls reading a book, holding a pen (why?), listening to music. Black contrast against white background. And in the end, beautiful girl, isn't it?

Street 3/52 - Reading a book

Week 2 - Hungry

Late afternoon again ... and a man in front of fast food. I like the contrast - lights of the kiosk and dark around it.

Street 2/52 - Hungry

Week 1 - Hurry

I have started regular street project after one year interuption. Project 52 again. Every week one photo. I look forward to taking snaps. And hopefully I will finish it by the end of this year and not earlier :-) So let us start. The first week is here, so the first street as well. Enjoy it ... at least as I do.

Street 1/52 - Hurry
