Description
My dear followers... THIS is my most favorite piece of all of the pictures I took on my 3.5 weeks in Europe!THIS is the Astronomical Clock in Praha (Prague, Czech Republic)! The ONLY astronomical clock in the world. And let me tell you, it's absolutely beautiful in person! Especially to see it work! But what I like best about this picture is it tells you the day that my husband and I were there... on our honeymoon.

And my husband's family (on his dad's side) is from the CR. Our last name is MelΕ‘a (We spell it Melsha in the US though).

Yes, Czech rep. is so beautiful. 
And what of the city he come from?

We're not sure. We've done research but it always stops right after they come to America. His Grandpa came to the US when he was a kid and never told any stories other than that he was from there. James' dad can speak Czech but he didn't teach it to James. We felt bad when we went there cause we didn't even know how to say "Thank You" in Czech. I always feel bad when I travel to another country and don't know any of the language. :\ Rosetta Stone doesn't even have a Czech version so we can't even practice. ><

Ok
But you can learn Czech language, because it is nice (yes, maybe little difficult

It'd be nice to learn it but there's not many good learning tools for it. If we stayed longer than just a week we might have picked up more.

This is gorgeous, the details and focus are just stunning. Fantastic composition and lines, there is a wonderful sense of beauty and movement in this picture.

The layout of the clock is superb! There is more to it than meets the eye - this picture invites you to dive in and see the clock "face" to "face," to touch and see what it is made of. To see the beauty in person. The contrast of black and gold is striking. The clarity of this is astounding.
I can not critique this because there is nothing to critique. The subject, the angle, the clarity, the artistic merit...it is all perfect. Great work.

I totally understand why you like this so much. The colours are very elegant, a perfect match with the golden parts, and the perspective you chose is also perfect. Well done!
