Description Old town squere - Prague.
The people are looking at this It´s just few minutes before full hour and before this famous clock starts ringing.

If you want to see the clock in action, here is a video [link]

I know it isn´t the best shot, framing for example is really bad, but I see something interesting at this family scene...

This day I made plenty photos from this squere. So many people, so many things happening. Many photos turned bad, but it was great exercise. I am from a little town where is street much more difficult than in Prague.
Thank you Unsal very much for your nice comment.

Yes, I noticed it as the first thing and I agree with you, my impression is exactly the same dear Rezzan. Both parents looked very serious, they didn´t smile at all, I had to think of these people even after I took their photo.
Thank you Rezzan.

Taky jsem hleděla! Málokdy vidíš tak velkou rodinu s malými dětmi na výletě. Docela hodně mě zaujali. Ještě mám fotku jednoho z těch 4 chlapečků, vyfotila jsem ho s úplně neskutečně unuděným obličejíkem, přidám ji sem, až se mi po neděli vrátí můj notebook.
Díky moc Jani!

I love this one. The first thing which went through my head before I read your comment was: There must be a big machinelike thing to the left, cause all the guys look at it and a shoe store to the right, where all the females turn their heads too. A lovely family and a great shot by the way

Alzbettta In reply to Tanja0869 [2010-06-20 17:01:10 +0000 UTC]

Ha ha, you are great Tanja and absolutely right! Just with this shoe store it isn´t true, I think the woman was completely lost in her own world and her thoughts. Maybe some organizing things, I think you must be quite an excellent manager to manage 5 kids on holiday (and at home too )

Thank you my dear so much!

Wow that is such a cool thing to look at. What's even cooler to look at is your capture of those who are looking at it. Definitive moment you captured. And another wonderful glimpse into the modern family. Your Street work is really special Betty. I think you found a genre in which you excel at. And your print tones are always perfect. Kudos on a job well done.

Wow Richard, I very appreciate your comment, thank you so much!
Just please, I am not very sure, what this "kudos" means. I have met this word several times in comments but I couldn´t find it in any dictionary, though I am sure, that it must be something very nice!

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Trippy4U In reply to Alzbettta [2010-06-20 19:31:59 +0000 UTC]

You're welcome Betty

I'm surprised you couldn't find it in an English dictionary. Any way here is what it means:

kudos |ˈk(y)oōˌdōs; -ˌdōz; -ˌdäs|
noun
praise and honor received for an achievement.
ORIGIN late 18th cent.: Greek.
USAGE Kudos comes from Greek and means ‘glory.’ Despite appearances, it is not a plural form. This means that there is no singular form kudo and that use as a plural, as in the following sentence, is incorrect: : he received many kudos for his work (correct use is : he received much kudos for his work).

Alzbettta In reply to EintoeRn [2010-06-20 16:48:49 +0000 UTC]

Yes, I think so. What surprised me the most was, that they were tourists (german speaking )It certainly isn´t easy to take so many little children for a trip. I am from six children and my parents never had energy to take us anywhere.

And have you noticed that the youngest child is a girl? Maybe they tried until it was a girl!
