Prague, for those who haven't been there, is superb. It is possibly the most unspoilt great city in Europe, if not the world. The buildings in all the better parts of the city pre-date the 20th century, so it is a visual feast. Everything works; transport, entertainment, food (and beer) are very cheap; and it's a lovely place to spend a few days. I enjoyed it enormously.
Getting on topic, I took a few photographs, but not many because on my first visit to a place I like to just walk around and absorb it. In these circumstances, a camera can be a distraction.
But there were some pics, and I'll post something in a day or two. Meanwhile, here is Fra looking slightly glazed in the restaurant. It was late. Low light, SMCP-K 1:1.2 wide open at 1/4 sec. Who needs flash, when they've got hands like Steady Stenquist? Or it could be rigor mortis.

Hi, I will be offline for some days. Enjoy it here. If the politics/philosophy discussion dies out, perhaps I will respond to it to enliven the list a bit after I return <g>. Probably won't have time to check the list after getting back, as I will be preparing off to Poland just few days after.
Met John Forbes the day before, very nice chap! I envy those who can make it to the London PDML gathering - I will be in Poland at the time.
