Jon Searles' photos with the keyword: sazava

I recently had a Photo CD made of one of my black and white rolls, and regretted it, as the scans were horrible. This one was an exception, though, even if I'm not particularly fond of black and white landscapes. Even if I'm not Ansel Adams, I actually like it. It's of the River Sazava (if I'm not mistaken), although quite a few kilometers south of Prague. I took this from a steam excursion train on Linka (mainline) 210 from Praha Branik-Cercany(or Dobris). Of course, if this is really the Vltava, somebody please correct me, but I'm pretty sure it's the Sazava.

I took this mainly for the Fall colors, although I waited until now to post it! I hope you like it. :-)

This is a bridge over the Sazava River In Cercany, Bohemia, where the opportunities to shoot great train pictures seem ever-present. In reality, I've never got a good shot of a train here, in spite of frequently being there, the bridge having trains every 15-30 minutes, and it being perfectly legal to walk out on the bridge!! As they say on Monty Python "I got a slug," but actually this isn't a slug at all...even worse, it's a speeder!! :-) At least it's an interesting one with a built-in crane.
