Charles Bridge, Prague – 2014

Charles Bridge in Prague is known for its hustle and bustle, but one of the most striking memories of my first visit to Prague in the 1990s was the beauty and tranquillity of the bridge. In order to re-discover that tranquillity, we got up early one morning on our travels to capture the golden morning light and the transition from stillness to bustle. Surprisingly, the quietest time on Charles Bridge wasn’t at 5:30 when we arrived, but around 6:30. From then, it just got busier until the stalls were all set up and the crowds had reached their mean daytime density by 10:15am, at which point we stopped the camera. 12fps using shots taken every 10 seconds for around 4 and a half hours
