I lugged my tripod over for a 2 week trip to Prague, Vienna, and Germany in July. I took this series of images over the river to Prague Castle late one evening. Dynamic range increase (DRI) by layer masks in Photoshop. Click image to get a 1024-wide version.

Lovely stuff, are they clouds in the background, just they look a lot like mountains in the thumnail version. How did you find Prague I'm hoping to visit there next year?

Prague is an amazing place, it is definitely worth a visit.
Just make sure you don't stay at the Clown and Bard Hostel.
Ohh and beer was cheaper then water when I was there

Yes, they're clouds - although the sky was dark to the naked eye (blinking in the glare of the lights - and there were hundreds of people behind me!). Prague - go there - take a big hard drive for your images! I would love to go back some day.

White balance fluoro is an interesting choice for such a mixed source- works really well. I must take it off auto more lol.
