Hello fellow Steemians,
I hope you are all having a great day! :) As usually, I am here with my daily photo challenge where you can submit your personal images from your travels to Prague and other locations in the Czech Republic in the comment section below.
The best 15 entries of the day will get my upvote. I will then pick the absolute winner of the day from these 15 photos. The winning photo will be awarded with a bigger upvote and it will also be featured as the cover image for the challenge post the next day to give the author of the winning shot some more exposure and publicity.
Don’t forget to add a short background story for your entry with at least 30 words and let me just remind you one more time that only personal images will be accepted in the challenge.
There were many great entries submitted in the yesterday Prague/Czech Republic photo challenge and I had a hard time picking the best one. After a deliberate consideration, however, I decided to choose the following entry by @krakonos:
Church of St. Margharett, part of the Brevnov Monastery complex. Břevnov Monastery was almost completely destroyed. During the Hussite wars, during the Thirty Years' War ... But it was not canceled during the reforms of Emperor Joseph II. So it retained much of its decoration and inventory. It was canceled until the communists in 1950. It was returned to Benedictine monks in 1990. The monks could make it up again.
I rewarded @krakonos entry with some extra upvote. Feel free to visit his blog and check out some of his other entries.
Thank you for your submissions. Have a great day and keep on Steeming!

Karlovy Vary (formerly Karsbad) is famous for the fact that there are many healing mineral springs in it. Knowing about this world-wide fame, once in Prague, they decided to definitely visit this wonderful resort town.
The first source that we met on the way from the train station Karlovy Vary - Snake. Mineral water is a source of low mineralization, but contains more carbon dioxide than other sources and flows from the vase in the form of a snake (hence the name of the source). The vase is located in the Garden Colonnade.
Close-up of the Prague Astronomical Clock, or Prague Orloj, a medieval astronomical clock located in the center of Prague. The clock was first installed in 1410, making it the third-oldest astronomical clock in the world and the oldest one still operating.
Snap shot taken during a performance at the Krizik Fountain, one of the most famous technical landmarks of Prague. With a capacity of up to 6,000 visitors, the fountain features 3,000 water jets, 50 water pumps and 1,200 lights of many colors hidden underneath its large water pool.
The Spanish Synagogue in Prague. Its name is due to the fact that it was built in Moorish revival style, in the middle of the 19th century. It is an interesting and beautiful building, the Franz Kafka monument is next to this synagogue.

How will this garden look in summer when the trees are green? I think I'm going to look at it with the camera.
(I want to thank Tomas not only because he occasionally attributes victories to me, but mainly because he organizes the competition. Thanks to him, I took a camera from the cabinet after a long time.)
Thank you so much for your special remark:) Have a great day.
My first day in the town of Usti nad Labem was rainy at first, but in the evening the clouds parted and I was able to photograph a beautiful sunset over the Laba River. Top left is Vetruse Castle, and on the right is the city center with the Church of the Assumption.
