Prague Castle and St Nicholas

I'm not a late night kind of person so one of the treats of visiting Prague in the winter...if you like nighttime photography....is that the sun goes down about 4 pm! There didn't seem to be much twilight either so you can have full darkness by 5 to get going on your nighttime work! The view of Prague Castle from across the Vltava River is iconic and nightly lots of photographers line the riverbank for photographs....cell phone pics, point and shoot pics, 35 mm digital pics, you name it, it's all out there! This picture is taken slightly to the north of the location of the most common photo spot which has the Charles Bridge in the foreground. I liked this location to include St Nicholas church in the frame as well. It's so beautiful how all of Prague is lit up at night! I don't know what time all the lights go out but I can tell you they are not on in the early morning before sunrise! I thought I might do some pictures early in the morning of the castle all lit up but all was dark. Click on the link below to see more about this image.
