I'm in Prague taking photos, and like all photographers I wish I was better at it. All photographers, to some degree, think they kind of suck at photography.

Prague is a pretty cool place for Christmas. But I think I really suffered from having unreal expectations. I was expecting winter white photos, and Christmas images that were iconic. Instead, I got mostly rainy and grey.

at 0:40 "you don't get homesick from places but memories". You are really becoming Portuguese, even if you don't notice it. It's saudade that you're feeling

@BrendanvanSon 3 месяца назад

Haha, I hope so. I do swear mostly in Portuguese now hahaha

I've been watching you for years now and have always enjoyed your content, photo tips and ability to travel. Imagine my surprise that in a city with so many hotels I see that you were staying in the same hotel I stayed at in 2019 for 6 nights! The Hotel Caesar was such a quaint place and I found it so easy to get around with the trams and subway nearby. You rekindled such good memories of my visit to the beautiful city of Prague.

“The warmth of cold.” Love it.

@BrendanvanSon 3 месяца назад

It was a "typo" I meant to say "warmth of snow" but I was too lazy to go back a re-record hahaha

@JasonLorette 4 месяца назад

Prague at Christmas is definitely on my bucket list, it looks so beautiful.

@BrendanvanSon 3 месяца назад

It is beautiful. But needs snow!

I like the pic of the arch and cathedral! wohoo simba is back (since December 🤣 )

6:37 Yea 100% a great photo to sell. People want empty some times because it invites them to come. Where as if you see 10K people you think it's crowded. Makes them feel they have the whole place to themselves

@BrendanvanSon 3 месяца назад

Yeah, very true.

@wookiedawgg 3 месяца назад

Loved Prague, we were there a couple of years ago. Trains. I love trains. It’s one of the big things about Europe I really love, the option of getting around by train.

@BrendanvanSon 3 месяца назад

Yeah, there's nothing better than the connection of the trains.

This is beautiful! Love these vlog-style shoots especially showing how you improvised where there's no snow

Thanks for the memory jog Brendan , I visited the Church of Bones about 20yrs ago( over in Czech Republic for MotoGP) after seeing it on The Long Way Round ( Charlie boorman/ewan mcgregor) ,incredible place 👍 As for crap images .....they're my speciality 😅

@phynx2006 4 месяца назад

That Chocolate Milk song 👍 I think you missed your calling 😂 I have to admit some of your crappy images were good, I like that reflection image from the puddle and the night image at 10:55 in the Old Town Square, which may have inspired the Chocolate Milk song 👍👍

Really enjoy the videos when you go out and look for a photo. Even if there isn't one. Merry Christmas!

@scottman895 4 месяца назад

Prague is such an incredible city! I'm glad you were able to do a day trip over to Kutna Hora! I was there back in 2021, and they weren't allowing photos inside that bone church then either. It was quite interesting and creepy at the same time to see inside of it.

@johannaknowles8569 4 месяца назад

I’m liking the new vlog style 👍🏻

@BrendanvanSon 3 месяца назад

Glad to hear it!

@vladimirpeknik4248 4 месяца назад

Hi Brandan, I live in Prague and this year's winter was really bad and I'm sorry that you lost Prague under the snow.

@BrendanvanSon 3 месяца назад

Tough year in Prague. I arrived the day of the shooting as well. So sad.

@joycady8325 4 месяца назад

What a beautiful city, thanks for taking us along :)

@BrendanvanSon 4 месяца назад

My pleasure 😊

@doctorbetamax539 3 месяца назад

Can't help feel that maybe you were in a funk; you thought you'd go to Prague but took your funk with you and then on your last day your mood lifted and your creativity returned. Anyway, glad you found some shots you liked by the end.

@juanitakelly3082 4 месяца назад

It's funny how we sometimes do and sometimes don't want people in the pictures! Thanks for spending your Christmas with us and allowing us to see the beautiful city!

@BrendanvanSon 3 месяца назад

You are so welcome!

@bradzaruba9686 4 месяца назад

I was in Prague a few years ago and got several photos on the last bridge. I had the light as well!

@BrendanvanSon 3 месяца назад

Noice!

@scotty4418 4 месяца назад

can definitely relate to your experience Brendan, from a recent trip to New York. Placed too many expectations on myself in terms of photography and nearly missed the enjoyment of being in the big apple.

@BrendanvanSon 3 месяца назад

It's funny that I had the opposite idea of NYC. I thought I was going to hate it, had no expectations, then I got there and was like "EVERYTHING IS A PHOTO!!"

@rogerdunn5988 4 месяца назад

Memories of my Christmas in Prague in 2016. The best view of the city is from the cathedral bell tower although the climb is a punishing one.

@robertkrein8016 3 месяца назад

I didn't know you are such a coffee fan. Next time you come to London be my guest. I'll make you a nice one.

@brucedelorme5026 4 месяца назад

Dude, I've been watching you for years and I'm just asking to make sure all is well. You doing ok withe the past few months of life changes? Keep pushing forward brotha. It's all good

@BrendanvanSon 3 месяца назад

All is really good Bruce. It was a tough transition, but I'm in a pretty good place. Thanks for asking. I hope you're well!

@brucedelorme5026 3 месяца назад

@BrendanvanSon you are a warrior! Warrior push on!

@matthewmccabe6142 4 месяца назад

I visited Kutna Hora back in 2010 and there were no issues taking photos inside at that time. Probably has something to do with them wanting to sell you something as opposed to anything else.

@BrendanvanSon 3 месяца назад

Yeah, I was the same. I was surprised when he said "no photos" because I was like, but I have already taken some. haha

@danienelphoto 4 месяца назад

But we are all crap! 😂 (Pre-emptive comment - starting vid now)

@BrendanvanSon 4 месяца назад

That's the best thing about photography. We're all crap, but we're all crap together. haha

@danienelphoto 4 месяца назад

@@BrendanvanSon Ain't that the truth.

@danielhenzphotography 4 месяца назад

Man what time was the last morning. So many people around

@BrendanvanSon 3 месяца назад

Just after sunrise. That bridge is packed at sunrise, even in the summer when sunrise is 4am haha

@sannes3185 3 месяца назад

Interesting...I've been to the bone church a few years back when they still allowed photography. I think they stopped allowing it because people started acting inappropriately to get good selfies. Yeah...there is always these people....

@JeniaFabisuk 4 месяца назад

I think my photos are awesome just FB and IG are crap and not showing them to broader audience.

@pictie 4 месяца назад

the vidio name .. ya i totally feel like everything i do is a dumpster fire other than one or two shots over all .

@chanceseiler 4 месяца назад

I feel all my photos are junk, but have had good comments on quite a few of them. We all see things a little different. Be safe.

@BrendanvanSon 4 месяца назад

It's a normal thing, I think in photography. We're our own worst critics.

@kevinphanson 3 месяца назад

So if all Photographers think they're crap, then if I actually AM crap, that means I'm not a photographer! sigh.

@BrendanvanSon 3 месяца назад

Haha, that's bad logic. All people who take pictures are photographers, and crap is relative.

@Les_Noar 3 месяца назад

A bit random Brendan, but do you still have your Land Rover?

@BrendanvanSon 3 месяца назад

Yup! Check the latest video :D

@gordonbrunner9429 4 месяца назад

..re the bone church...if you cant take photos i'd lose interest...i think you may have spent 10 minutes more than i would have...places like that really attract me, but like i say........i should think the reasoning has something to do with what they sell in their gift shop...

@BrendanvanSon 3 месяца назад

I felt stupid spending 10 Euros on a ticket and I didn't want to waste it haha. The funny thing is they don't sell tickets or souvenirs on site. There's a gift shop off the site where they force you into haha.
