A wet night in Krakow

We have had our restaurant dinner only to find ourselves confronted by heavy rain. Taxis seem rare at this time of night here and so its a fast walk back along these roads back to our hotel. Of course I cannot stop myself trying to catch the marvellous reflections in these cobblestones and tram-tracks, even though I only have my trusty little Canon pocket camera with me. - Just in case...

Just demonstrates Jaap that you don't really need the best pro equipment for nice photos.

Cheers, Herb

Glad you like this one. I was pleased with this as the rain was splattering me and my camera.

Hi Herb,

Great night scene, and for me the red neon sign works well as a nice focal point.

Best wishes, and a good weekend

Herb Riddle replied to Peter_Private_Box:

The neon was most fortunate Peter, maybe I should have waited a moment longer for the girl with the brolly to get closer. Great that you liked this.

Herb Riddle replied to Roger (Grisly):

I don't take as many night scenes as I should Roger. I was just pleased that this worked out OK. You can never be quite sure with those small camera's

Great shot, Herb... It can almost be guaranteed, to get a good result under these conditions...
It always pays to carry a camera, even if it's a small one!..... I had one once, but lent it to my grand daughter, she liked it so much didn't have the heart to take it back... :-((

Herb Riddle replied to John Goodwin:

Thank John, yes useful things sometimes. usually I don't take it on such trips but this time, luckily I did. By enlarge though I took almost the same photos with both and this Canon could not scratch the Nikon SLR. I understand the sentiment with your granddaughter.

Cheers,Herb
