CzechingIn
A blog about an English lady in Prague.
A number of readers have asked me to include some photos of beautiful Prague, and elsewhere in the Czech Republic. I am very happy oblige. All the photos on this page are taken by me, whilst I am learning to use the SLR I just inherited from a very kind friend (with a little help from Picassa…) You can see my other snaps on Flickr. I have also written a short feature for the Guardian newspaper, on the opportunities for budding photographers in Prague, linked here.
