St Vitus's Cathedral,Prague...(16th century)...detail of the superb neo-Gothic façade(masterpiece of neo-Gothic architecture,remarkable for its ornate decoration,particularly in the central rose window and the portal..
Stunning architecture, Adriana and beautifully captured. The only thing missing is a nice blue sky, but, there isn't really too much you can do about that now is there? :) Nice work -
Everybody tries to get a shot of this hudge thing in a different way. I like your idea, it makes me feel so small. Even I know everything you post here, I am really happy to see it all - or maybe because?
What a giant Cathedral, Adriana!, this is amzing and breathtaking! I wish I could see this really some day!
You've take this very well with a great angle!
Do you know how high this Cathedral is?
Thanks for sharing!
Kind regards!

Now thats an impressive capture my friend. I love the stone work on these old cathedrals, you just dont see work like that anymore. Wonderful angle you chose as well.
your picture really shows it off well, good perspective, detail and color except the sky is washed out , how did that happen? was the light behind the cathedral and you used a flash?
I hold it true that thoughts are things; They're endowed with bodies, breath and wings:
And that we send them forth to fill the world with good results, or ill.
That which we call our secret thought speeds forth to earth's remotest spot, leaving it's blessings or it's woes like tracks behind it as it goes.
We build our future, thought by thought for good or for ill, yet know it not.
Yet so the universe was wrought .
Thought is another name for fate.
Choose then thy destiny and wait, for Love brings Love and Hate brings Hate. - Henry Van Dyke.

I like BOTH of your pics...but I prefer the b/w one...I like the clouds...but then, I think I am gothic at heart. "Quoth the raven...nevermore." I love this photo. Bill.
