Hello fellow Steemians,
I hope you are all enjoying a great weekend! :) 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 but before you do that, please read this update of the rules and conditions of this photo challenge:
AS THIS PHOTO CHALLENGE HAS BEEN INCREASINGLY POPULAR ON STEEMIT AND THE NUMBER OF SUBMISSIONS HAS BEEN CONSTANTLY GROWING, I CANNOT UVPOTE ALL OF THEM ANYMORE, UNFORTUNATELY. THEREFORE, STARTING NOW, ONLY THE BEST 15 ENTRIES OF THE DAY WILL BE UVPOTED. OUT OF THOSE 15 PHOTOS, HOWEVER, I WILL ALWAYS CHOOSE THE WINNER OF THE DAY WHO WILL BE REWARDED WITH A BIGGER UVPOTE. THE WINNING PHOTO WILL BE ALSO FEATURED AS THE COVER PHOTO FOR THE CHALLENGE POST THE NEXT DAY, TO GIVE THE WINNER SOME MORE EXPOSURE AND PUBLICITY. HOPEFULLY, THESE UPDATES WILL ALSO MOTIVATE ALL CONTRIBUTORS TO SUBMIT THEIR VERY BEST SHOTS.
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 @pbv:
Charles Bridge - A masterpiece in history looks stunning from every view. Sharing a picture I clicked from the Prague Castle. I felt the castle was a perfect place to capture some stunning shots of the entire city. I have shared so many pictures from this city on this contest and I still am able to pick more. I guess I fell in love with Prague.

I rewarded @pbv winning entry with some extra upvote. Feel free to visit her blog and check out some of her other photos.
Thank you for your submissions. Have a great day and keep on Steeming!

Tourism booming in Czech Republic: more than 10 million foreign visitors last year!

If you go for sunset, that is the absolute most magical time to go. my friend and I went afternoon and had lunch at the markets that are set up there. the castle at the top is unlike anything we've ever seen and we got some of our best pictures from the top. especially the sunset in autumn makes the roof more beautiful.
Thank you so much for your wonderful entry which will be featured as an entry in tomorrow's Prague/Czech Republic photo sharing challenge. Congrats! Tomas
I think this photo doesn´t need description :) This is sunset in the most beautiful city of the world. Prague Castle is one of the most visited monuments. I just love this city so much! I will remember this night forever.
For full view, please click on the image!
What a beautiful colors! Great capture.
Night photo of Old Town Square showing in the foreground the famous astronomical clock and in the background the Gothic Church of our Lady before Tyn. The astronomical clock is one of the most famous monuments of Prague, it was built in the XV century
Beautiful shot! Thank you for your submission. Tomas
If i was not so tall, I can't make this photo.
Clock at the Town Hall. It's hard to count how many people are going to here. I had to hold the camera in outstretched arms. And I was aiming in the blind. After all, there is no turning screen on my SLR camera
I love your underwater marine life shots but obviously, you do pretty well above the surface too :D Nice composition :)
Fantastic shot.
You did very well fitting in all the most important parts:)
I tried very hard))
Long arms and a wide-angle lens helped me!)
I like the new rules, this way it becomes more of a competition and I am sure the photos submitted will get even better!
View on Český Krumlov
I captured this view on Český Krumlov's central square from the castle that overlooks the small town.
In 2005, the horror movie Hostel was shot in Český Krumlov. It was so funny to watch this movie and recognize the places that I visited in Český Krumlov; I am not sure if the town was only renovated after the movie was shot or if they made some changes to the beautiful town to make it fit it in the horror set!

I am very glad to hear you like the new rules. Yes, the main purpose is to attract better entries. Have a great Sunday. Tomas
I have already posted a few panoramic shots taken from the Zizkov Lookout Tower but you can also use a binocular (for a small fee) there and enjoy even more breathtaking views of Prague. There are few places in Prague with such vistas. Photo taken in April 2016.
New Rules are not fun, this contest is the only reason I use the site... but I get it. :(
This is a picture of the Church of Our Lady before Týn from atop the Town Hall. Which is one of the best views of Prague following Petrin. If you want to go up to the top you can skip the line by buying your tickets online and I think it is a little cheaper too.
Great pic! No need to despair... The main purpose is to increase the quality of the entries. Riht now it came to the point that I was upvoting even a low quality content. Hopefully tightening the rules will make better entries. Have a great day. Tomas
PS: I did change it for 15 entries for now, let's see what happens next:)
That is fair. I can get behind that.
:) Agreed!
Very nice photo I must say. Nice? Not nice, BEAUTIFUL! :)
cheers!
Prague Castle during one rainy night in April. This beautiful city is full of people and tourists in every season no matter what kind of weather you throw at it. In this photo I really like variety of light colors that reflects on the water.
Cheers!
This photo was taken in December during my first trip to Prague. It was a very bright and perfect day to walk the beautiful streets and enjoy the views of this amazing city.
I like the photo very much! It has something special, but i dont know what it is. maybe its you personal and unique style of taking photos. anyways, i really like it!:)
Aww. thanks :) I'm glad you're enjoying it :*
What a great picture! If it had a better story behind it I would have picked it as a winning one. Have a great day. Tomas
I took this photo on my travels to Prague in November November 2016. It was my 18th birthday, so we decided to give him a good trip, we went for a whole weekend and payed everything. Only negative thing about our trip was the weather... it was rainy the whole weekend, you can't always have perfect conditions on your trips... Really enjoyed the view from the bridge towards the river!
Thank you so much for your entry. Enjoy the rest of your weekend. Tomas
This photo was made near Dolni Oldris. My friend has a hut there. It is really small village with only 24 inhabitans and where you are there it is like you are at the end of the world. If you go into forest you will not meet anyone. There is only wild nature.
That is a small village:).... Interesting pic!
In Prague, you can not only see the sights purposefully, here you can just walk along the streets and admire the little things. Here, and incredible decorations of houses, and beautifully decorated street cafes, and numerous shops with jewelry from Czech pomegranates and vltavinov, but you need to look not only on the sides, but under your feet. For example, sewers are here and signed, and decorated :)
Hello Tomas, this is a photo of upper part of Vegetable market (Zelny trh) in Brno. You can find many stands with fresh fruit and vegetable there in summer, this "farm trade" has got tradition a few centuries. There's Parnas fountain in the front, the big building behind is Moravian museum and above its roof are towers of St. Peter's and Paul's cathedral (Petrov). This shot was taken one week ago.
Hi, thank you so much for your wonderful entry. Have a great Sunday. Tomas
Thank you for an upvote, I appreciate it a lot.
Another photo of Prague city from a view point. Last time I mentioned that going to Prague is best around autumn or spring as it doesn't get too hot or cold. You will see different coloured leaves in autumn or the spring flowers depending when you decide to go. there is surely something for everyone in Prague city
I took this image in Chrudim which is a small town not far from Kutna Hora that is often overlooked. In a small park up the hill from the main square is a mysterious old church with these amazing Renaissance grave stones from the 15th or 16th centuries. Chrudim is well worth visiting with one of the best plague columns in the republic as well as a cool puppet museum. The whole town has a remarkable genius loci. The Czech Republic is full of mysteries and sights, every region has numerous castles and chateaux full of secret wonders.
Congrats on all of your success! It's so wonderful to see these daily contests grow in size and quality.
Thank you so much Matt! I know you are running out of pics but you were one of the initial drivers of this contest. Truly appreciated! Have a great day. Tomas
Thanks a ton Tomas for the upvote and feature. I am glad my picture was selected from among some amazing shots :)
Well deserved! Have a great Sunday. Tomas
Stunning place and amazing photos, it feels like Im in the place already enjoying the beautiful places..
The photo shows the entire city, a photo is made at Prague Castle. The city is very nice and I would like to visit it again.
The cross on the Charles Bridge, the legend says, if you put your hand on it, and you desire a desire, the desire will come true, and you will come again to Prague
In front of the Kafka Museum in Prague, this is a controversial statue. It attracted me attention, and to other visitors to Prague.

I was walking a little in Petřín 's orchards in quite harsh weather. Even though I was raining, I used my smartmobil on this photo of the royal castle. I regret that normal photography can not capture the amazing energy of the place.
good thinking about photography.its very important for increase creativity
