Charles Bridge in Prague
Prague is one of those cities that I would like to go back to and photograph again. This bridge is impossibly busy during day and even till late into the night. To get a clear view of it, you need to get up and get…
Fly by Wire – Experiencing the Sony NEX-6
I took the Sony NEX-6 with on a trip out the country for the first time. It was a work trip, so I did not have time for any landscape photography. However, it was a useful test of the camera as a means to document…
