7 First Impressions of Prague, Czech Republic
(From a Street Photography Perspective)

After Kiev, Lviv and Krakow, the next stop on my Eastern European Street Photography Tour was Prague.

I’ve actually traveled to Prague once before, but it was over 7 years ago. So you might call this 7 First Impressions of Prague in 2016. With how much Prague has recently changed, it felt like going there for the first time in many ways, anyway.

This fairytale of city has become one of the most popular tourist destinations in Europe very quickly over the last decade. There’s plenty of reason why too. There’s really no other city like it. When it comes to Street Photography, though, too much tourism saturation can be a negative at times.

Being a special city like Prague brings both an amazing setting and crowds of people to share it with. So here are my first impressions of Prague, from my personal Street Photographer perspective…

My Top 61 Street Photography Photos From 2015

Why 61 photos?

Well, I was going to try to come up with some clever reason on why I went with the number 61, but I’ll just be honest.

I’m not good at editing down my photos, I was randomly stuck at 61 photos from the year, and I gave up on cutting them down further to an even and sensible Top 50.

So before we’re already weeks into 2016…

7 First Impressions of Krakow, Poland
(From a Street Photography Perspective)

After shooting photography in Kiev, Poltava and Lviv, I took a train to Kraków, Poland. I’d never heard anyone not recommend it, so I was looking forward to spending some time in this medieval city. It was also my first time in Poland and I was ready to explore everything Kraków had to offer as soon as I stepped off the overnight train.

So here are my first impressions of Kraków, from my personal Street Photography perspective…

33 Street Photography Photos from 4 Days in Lviv, Ukraine

My last stop in Ukraine was also many locals’ favorite city in the country. Lviv is mixture of old architecture, churches, coffee houses and uniquely themed shops wherever you walk. All this packed into an extremely walkable city. There’s a very charming and unique vibe to the city that people refer to as “the Lviv Spirit.” When you walk around, you feel something special.

7 First Impressions of Lviv, Ukraine
(From a Street Photography Perspective)

My time in Ukraine finished off at the western corner in Lviv. This is the city that most Ukrainians told me was their favorite. They told me about the coffee houses, themed restaurants and bars, the architecture, the culture and the special, old world charm some call “the Lviv Spirit.”

It’s one thing to hear about it, but it’s another to experience it and make your own impressions of the place. Experiencing a city through Street Photography can give its own perspective compared to just going as a tourist too.

So here are my first impressions of Lviv, from my personal Street Photography perspective…

33 Street Photography Photos from 5 Days in Poltava, Ukraine

During my time shooting some of the bigger cities in Ukraine, I made a detour to Poltava to visit my good friend there. Poltava has a population under 300,000 so it doesn’t feel anything like a big, urban city. Life is a little slower paced and relaxed. The scenery, while less modern, is beautiful and full of parks everywhere you walk. And while there might be less to do compared to the big city, there was still plenty to see and photograph.

I didn’t have any expectations, but ended up getting a good amount of Street Photography in because of how great Poltava was. It was such a great experience shooting in a smaller city for a change that I even wrote a post about it.

So here are 33 street photos I took during my 5 days in Poltava…
