Sunset and Dusk at Prague Castle and Charles Bridge

When I had done a series of HDR images with the view of Prague Castle and Charles Bridge one evening during my trip in June this year, I still felt like I hadn't had the shutter bug in me being tamed. Therefore, on my final day of the trip before flying back to my hometown, I went to shoot more photos of these two landmarks in Prague.

This time, I went earlier at 8 p.m. after my dinner. The people in Malaysia don't see the sun after 7 p.m., but the sun starts to set at 8:30 p.m. in June in Czech Republic.




The camera doesn't 'see' the scene as what our eyes are seeing because of the limited dynamic range. Therefore, I again made the following sunset images using HDR so that more details are revealed.












Since I was there already, I stayed till the sun had totally set and made some night scene images, but this time with only one image in HDR. Can you tell which one it is? Comparing the following non-HDR images to the HDR ones that I posted earlier, which version do you prefer?

An Evening with Charles Bridge and Prague Castle

When you visit a souvenir shop in Prague, you will bound to find postcards and paintings with the view of two landmarks, Charles Bridge and Prague Castle. Charles Bridge is spanning across Vltava River whereas Prague Castle is standing on top of the hill on the west bank. These two elements make the them blend well in a picture.

I spent one evening in June this year to create some photographs of this view. The high dynamic range (HDR) version of the images are shown below. Please enjoy the view!
