This was my latest attempt at a Fall foliage shot of Zofin, an island in the River Vltava in Prague. Over in the distance on the right you can also see the Narodni Divadlo, or National Theatre. It would have been nice to get fewer greens and more yellows and oranges, but apparently Prague wasn't as far along when I took this as Cercany.

.....I like this version way better than the color version. :-) The balloon in the background, a genuine old-fashioned gas balloon, and not a hot air balloon, had me fascinated for the several weeks (months?) it was floating over the Mala Strana. It was a really, really cool piece of 19th Century (basically) technology that I never thought I would ever see in real life. :-)
