Who'd have thought, eh?!

No idea what it is about this hoarding, but I always end up taking a few shots of it when I'm in Prague. And usually with some blurred figures in front!

Leica M9 +35mm Leica Summilux M f1:1.f. ISO 160, 1/30s at f1:8.0. PP in LR and Nik ColorFX 4.

nice one! love the darker blurred figures against the bright background. that's a pretty cool cobblestone street too.

I like the bits outside the hoarding, the red sign above (SS?) and the "Oley"! The heart and the birthday cake. What an odd collection.

 

[Pete Askew]

Thanks both. Must redo that border!

 

[Rob MacKillop]

I thought it was deliberate...

 

[Pete Askew]

No, I reduced its spread too much (Type 2 in Nik). I just did the same again! [banghead]

Creamy is the word that comes to mind. The contrast between the smoothness of the wall and the posters works so well.

You're a creature of habit, Pete. (But I'm glad of it!)

Cool image. I like the "SS" up in the left corner also. Over a really interesting fotie.
