The vivid trams of Prague

The vivid trams of Prague

By Naren Ubi on June 7, 2010

I love trams! May be because the city that I live in is devoid of them. They are slow-moving, and adds a certain charm to the streets that they snake through. The trams in Prague, unlike the ones in Germany, are hardly occupied. It adds to the laid-back lifestyle of the people of Prague. Wish [...]

A golden streak along the street..

A golden streak along the street..

By Naren Ubi on May 29, 2010

This is the limit of night photography with the Canon A520 digital camera. With the apparent lack of image stabilization, you need to have a tripod and a timed shutter. Well, I used neither. I just placed the camera on a slightly slant concrete surface (with the awful thought of scratching my camera at the [...]

It’s just the perspective that makes the difference..

This picture was taken from the banks of the famous Vltava river (movies like Mission Impossible, XXX, etc were shot on this river). The place is Prague. It’s quite difficult to get the desired perspective when too many beautiful things occupy a single frame. In such circumstances, one just needs to blur the not-so-desired portions, [...]

A quiet market place..

A quiet market place..

By Naren Ubi on May 25, 2010

Imagine a quiet market place on a lazy cloudy day! With the cool breeze on your face, with the ice cream vendor in sight – irresistible. This is the scene at a market place in the heart of Prague (or Praha). Hardly talking, everyone just minding their own damn business. You may think, how so boring… [...]

All is blue – digital photography with Canon

All is blue – digital photography with Canon

By Naren Ubi on May 18, 2010

This photograph was taken with my old Canon A520 – a camera I cherish the most, as it’s my first digital camera. Canon, as always, is known for its enhanced blue colors. I added the progressive blur effect to this photo with the help of my favorite photo editor PhotoScape. This is a fast motion [...]

Stained glass art – Themed pic of the day

By Naren Ubi on December 5, 2008

Art has been the centerpiece of all religions, old or new, on our planet. Ancient Indian civilizations, that collectively came to be known as the Hindus, were carving and painting on rocks for well over..

Twilight lighting – Themed pic of the day

By Naren Ubi on November 20, 2008

Sometimes, I feel that there is so much beauty in the buildings of Eastern Europe, but too few people to admire them. Probably, they got bored of drooling at such beauties that are present almost everywhere..especially, in Prague. Not a single soul to be seen around (but for the car!) when I was taking this picture. Looks like an architect’s representation of a new building about to be built.

Church of Our Lady Before Tyn – Themed pic of the day

By Naren Ubi on November 10, 2008

Prague (Praha) never fails to fascinate you. All eight corners of the old town square of Prague sports a beautiful mix of modern and fourteenth century architecture. Of special mention are those buildings with Gothic architecture. I’m told that Gothic architecture is peculiar in providing asymmetry to the stance of the building, giving the entire structure a surrealistic image – a strange mixture of art, culture and magic.

Take a look at the spire of this church Týnský Chrám, or Church of Our Lady Before Tyn in English..
