Last week we spent 5 days in the city of Wroclaw (formerly the German city of Breslau) in Poland. Half of the time it rained, the other half it did not rain but the sky was overcast. The city is very interesting in terms of architecture. The historic centre is determined by the river Oder. The well rerstaurated historic buildings are corresponding with the new architecture very well, bound to harmony and integrative places. I have never seen a city where this relation is so well planned. Breslau is the cultural capital of europe 2016. We did shoot with lightweight gear. Here the Leica Q could show its capacity in dark churches and at night handheld with high ISO rates. We carried a tripod all the time and used it, of course. Enjoy the pictures! Breslau, Rynek. This is one side of the main market place. The historic building of the municipality is round the corer and not in the picture. Here the well restaurated buildings are a delightful sight and an invitiation to linger and relax.

Church towers are best to get a panroamic view on the cities. Here we climbed the tower of the church adjacent to the cathedral. The churches all over are constructed with brick stones and are with their gothic style quite dark and gloomy. We could were not very much enthusiastic about them but it is worthwhile yet to climb the towers where possible. Unfortunately the sight was very limited because we had this rainy weather with humid grey sky. The Leica Q did an impeccable job and could even get the dark stones as well as the sky without any significant losses.

Prague is beautiful at every hour. It was a bit cold in April. But this provided us with an interesting dramatic light. Olympus OMD EM 5 with Summilux, 3 photos stitched
