This is one piece of a multiple study of my view from the studio on Vaclavkova. It is a colourful and chaotic scene over railway lines, with roads, wires, tramps, trains, trams and Prague castle and St.Vitus. The lack of buildings across the street floods my studio with so much light, all year round, that I tend to long for a subdued day. Today is such a day. In the evening, as the sun rappels off the side of the western world, beams cut across surfaces as if in a desperate effort to draw one last glance from those of us happy to accept the gloaming. I like this view because it is a perch, and by scanning back and forth you can see so much of the activity of daily life. It is also a jumble of architecture, it is a cross section of Praguer life. Not a tourist experience by any means, but a genuine slice of life.
