One of the reasons I love living in Prague is the educational opportunities I have access to. Though that may seem a bit over enthusiastic for a college student, it's true. Living in such an incredible city affords incredible learning opportunities. I recently had one of these opportunities when I went on a night shoot with my photography class.
After our midterm was completed, we packed up our things, grabbed our cameras and went up to Prague's beautiful castle, all in under fifteen minutes. We spent the next two hours learning and practicing how to take the best photos at night. As I took pictures of the castle, I was struck by how blessed I am to be here and how amazing an opportunity living in Prague really is. How many photography students can say they went to a castle built in the ninth century for class?
