Hello fellow Steemians,

I hope you are all having a great day! :) As usually, I am here with my daily photo challenge where you can submit your personal images from your travels to Prague and other locations in the Czech Republic in the comment section below.

The best 15 entries of the day will get my upvote. I will then pick the absolute winner of the day from these 15 photos. The winning photo will be awarded with a bigger upvote and it will also be featured as the cover image for the challenge post the next day to give the author of the winning shot some more exposure and publicity.

Don’t forget to add a short background story for your entry with at least 30 words and let me just remind you one more time that only personal images will be accepted in the challenge.

There were many great entries submitted in the yesterday Prague/Czech Republic photo challenge and I had a hard time picking the best one. After a deliberate consideration, however, I decided to choose the following entry by @ritxi:

Sněžka is the highest mountain in the Czech Republic with the height 1603 meters. It's also the highest mountain of Krkonoše, what are Czech greatest mountains. You can easily observe to the Czech Republic and to Poland (the north view), the borders to Poland are very close. You can refresh yourself in the buffet Česká Poštovna on the top of Sněžka. It’s a post office, you can also send a postcard from the top of Sněžka, what is quite interesting. Ahoj!

Saint Nicolas Church in the Evening, Prague

One more telephoto views across Vltava River. This time main subject is St Nicolas Church located in Lesser Town of Prague. This church is so big that it is almost impossible to frame it from short distance. But there are many great views with it from the the distance.

What an amazing image to be featured today. I don't see many pics from this angle.

Known as the "Východní Nádraží" (translates as the Eastern Station), this is the main railway station of the Silesian city of Opava. Built in late Classicist architectural style in 1851, the building was named the most beautiful railway station of the Czech Republic in 2012 and I can see why :)

The sculptures of Libuše and Přemysl are from the Czech sculptor Josef Václav Myslbek. Originally, it stood on the bridgehead of the Palacky Bridge, but in an American air raid the bridge was destroyed. After the reconstruction and extension of the sculpture bridge, there was no place, so they were moved to Vyšehrad.

Ano, máš to kompozičně daleko lepší než já včera. Si snad o tom fotografování něco přečtu... (A zařídím si silnější brýle. Už fotím prakticky poslepu.)

Doporučuji si sehnat nějakou knihu kde se mluví o základech fotografie. Nejlépe vydané před rokem 1989, protože zde se dozvíš potřebné základy. A na stylem že potřebuješ objektiv takové délky a fotoaparát ze statisíce, jak je to prezentováno v nových knihách. Já jsem začal sbírat knihy, které se zabývají fotografií vydané právě před rokem 89 a našel jsem tam tolik inspirace, že se mi seznam fotek pořád rozrůstá a nevím zda ho někdy dokončím. Nebo hodně pomáhá youtube, ale tam je potřeba dobrá poslechová angličtina a vybrat si videa čistě o kompozici.

Jen jsem chtěl pozdravit.

That is a terrific image! Well done.

Old Town Hall in Brno is in the heart of the city centre. You can go to the top of the observation tower, where you can have a great view on the Brno centre. If you never been there, you definitely should visit the observation tower – great place with amazing Genius loci.
Ahoj!

There's always this air of fairytale about prague that is yet to be told and one could descern that just looking at the street of Prague, a new journey into the wonderland one envisions begin. My story is being told everyday with these magical photos I take

“Great view of Plzen” Quite a few stairs to the top but a great 360° view rewards you!
The stairway to the top floor is tough, but you will love the view once you're up there. Impressive gothic cathedral with even more impressive view from the tower (which is not expensive to visit).

As the train was in motion, this shot was made. It was one of the beautiful things i did. I got this shot capturing a wide range; beautiful buildings together with moving cars on the road.
A great shot from Prague

I know that summer is coming, but today winter picture of observation tower on Smrk Mountain. In Jizera Mountains you can find also a dark-sky preserve, so it means that this area is not polluted by artificial light and is perfect for astronomical observations.

PRAGUE, CZECH REPUBLIC. I took this picture on John Lennon's Wall.
The John Lennon Wall was once an ordinary Old Town wall in Prague, but since the 1980s it has been painted with John Lennon-inspired graffiti and parts of Beatles lyrics...

Great click, I like that a lot!

kutná hora, město stříbra a katedrál. Beautiful place with wonderful and amazing cathedrals there and lovely weather. A beautiful city that you can always visit and always find something beautiful. The cathedrals, churches, ossuary, tobacco, scenic aisles, or a lookout tower over the city. loved the place.

Colorful Sunset in Dobrany

Dobrany is a small town between Prague and Pilsen, on our travel route we arrive to the house of a friend of my friend, we had a wonderful night sharing beers and food, and we enjoy this spectacular sunset, the next day we continue our journey.

A fairytale town in the middle of Europe. Czech is beautiful, legendary city that leaves Paris behind in romance ... Discovery buffs, this delightful and romantic city is absolutely worth a visit. In the enchanting atmosphere created by the Middle Ages, the enthusiasm and life will be covered with love and enthusiasm to step on the streets of history. This romantic city is Prague, with whom do you want to explore?

Charles Bridge is one of the most famous places in Prague, therefore, only having arrived in the city, settled in a hotel and immediately went to look for it.
The Charles Bridge is a pedestrian crossing between the two banks of the Vltava River - the Old Town and the Lesser Country. Just in these parts of the city most of the sights of Prague are concentrated, therefore there is no way to pass along the Charles Bridge from tourists.

The starkly beautiful Gothic Church of St. James with its slender, 86 m tall tower, is a defining landmark on the Kutná Hora skyline. It is the oldest church in town. Its construction began in 1330 and ended in 1420. The church was originally projected with two towers but it soon turned out that the ground beneath was too unstable due to silver mining to hold both. The unfinished part of the second tower is clearly visible on the church exterior.

I call this, the great red roofs of Prague. The view from my hotel room was awesome.. I was surprised to see the hills and red ceilings of over a thousand houses. And as you know the greatest combination of red and blue are the best. Now look at the blue sky toppled with these red ceilings

My wife, Riana, and I explored Prague by foot for two days when we went there for the first time. We made a point of taking smaller alleys and side streets to make sure we miss nothing and find the hidden treasures of Prague. What an epic city!

Prague, it's not just architecture only. There is also music of many genres and levels. There are also many places where you can not only listen but also dance.

It's just advertising, but I think it's original.
