Brno at night
I've posted a photo topic everyday since Monday, and today will be no different. (Although tomorrow probably will, I can't afford to spoil you like this. :-P I'm just emptying my photo buffer.)
This was one fine evening out with Jana, though she probably wouldn't agree -- although I was planning to explain everything to her, and make her as involved as possible, it turned out that I had a lot on my plate as it were. Perhaps because it was my first time out with a tripod, I kept tweaking it all the time, while trying to find optimal manual settings for each shot, including the white balance and other pleasantries, so I paid too much attention to all that stuff which likely bored her to death. :-/ Not to mention the timed triggers and repeating some shots multiple times. Sadly, I am a mere man, and real multitasking is something I have yet to learn.


Petrov is as fine as churches in minor cities get, I like it much more than St. Martin's Dome in Bratislava. At least some fine architecture came out of the dark ages, when secularity meant heresy and heresy, in turn, meant that you could expect the Spanish Inquisition... if only it wasn't entirely unexpectable. :-P


It's a true landmark in Brno, and some of the alleys around it are pretty nice, especially at night. Not quite as nice as the ones in old town of Bratislava, though.

Eerie. :-) And this one is pretty rare, as this tower is only cleanly visible from a little spot and is usually lighted during the night -- not this night for some reason.




I really do like this city. :-)

My wife is from Brno. I am from US and we live in Phoenix, AZ. She currently is in Brno with the kids visiting her family. I head over in July for 3 weeks. Can't wait.
Don't be so emo ;-), you know I find Brno at night with you very enjoyable :-). And it doesn't matter how much time you spend doing all those photo-related things I don't understand at all. :-)
Ňuf, perhaps I do. :-) Thanks.
And Ian, wow, it's not too often we have tourists from overseas here. Thanks for reading and commenting, by the way. How did you find this?
Oh, and when you're in Brno, do give me a call, I could show you around or we could have a drink maybe.
