..has been beautiful this week. If you have never been yet, do try and make it there one day. It just takes my breath away each time I have to go there. Style on the street is spot on and you will see why Eastern Europeans now dominate

It has been an amazing week with others out here.







If any one wants to see more shots from this beautiful city this week, mail me. Similarly recent shots from Paris, Venice, London....

Fantastic shots of the city... I was in Prague last year but it didn't feel like the happiest place at the time. Perhaps it was a bad time to go. But the buildings and Art Nouveau designs everywhere were utterly amazing.

i wanna go to prague :(

Prague is an amazing city in terms of the cityscape, but I have to agree with Tania on the feeling of the place - it simply doesn't have it yet. I think give it some more time and it's going to be a truly magical place.

Depends what you mean by "it" but I actually see the danger of it going downhill. Like any city unleashed, it has found that money comes from tourism, gambling and sex and with the cost of flights somedays less than 90EU return from London/Paris, the place is becoming choked with both organised tours and hen/stag events.

After a while, seeing in cities the same designer shops and so called cool bars and clubs, one yearns for something different, something more real and in touch with the roots of the place. The beauty of extended Europe is in its diversity, its history, the languages, the culture. Sophia, Prague and many others have an endless fascination for the curious, down side streets, on hills, talking to taxi drivers not of the fare but of issues in the country.

Prague has many sides to it, which makes it interesting and look away from the H&M and LV shops, and at the students and see just good clothing worn well. It isn't a place for an outsider to break into fashion modelling as there is just too much home grown beautiful talent but as hub and a location for shoots, it is buzzing!!

So don't delay, go in the spring with a lover and seek out the backstreets and the river and you will be happy:)

The crime, abandoned buildings, graffiti, and so on that exists directly outside the central hub of the city.

We got around quite a bit this time while shooting and two of the people with us were born and brougt up in Pague and it seems no worse than places in Paris and London and other cities I could take you to that would make you hair stand on end. Many people just dont know all of Paris, London, NYC etc as they are larger.

Doesn't stop me from enjoying what is good in a city and it is all part of seeing the world and understanding life. I feel safe in Prague, more so than NYC

Palm Springs has little Graffiti, but it is a boring as a bowling ball in bedsocks:) Brazil has real problems on the city outskirts, but it is still an amazing place to go...
