The Jews of Cracow (Krakow) enjoyed protected status in 14th century Poland, but by the end of the 15th century were forced to move to this district, south of the city. They suffered terribly during the second world war, though much of the action of the film “Schindler’s List”, though shot here, took place in another district on the other side of the Vistula river. Kazimierz is full of picturesque old streets like this. Taken with the synagogue behind me. Pentax K10D.

Fantastic image! love the color at the end of the street.
The slow fade from gray to color is great, like the light at the end of the tunnel, it draws you forward.
Awesome POV, lovely rich image Avalon
fantastic perspective! love the reflection!
Beautiful colours…excellent perspective and DOF. Good composition and water reflection. Good work.
that’s a great portrayal. the place seems grungy, and the photo is really dark and crisp, yet it looks clean somehow.
that puddle really makes this shot….. great composition
Thanks Lisa. I took care to position the camera so as to avoid strong reflections in the water from the street lights.

Thanks for the comment, Clive.

Beautiful capture…cold as the cobbles. Love the reflection and feel of this…one can feel the coldness of another era from ground to sky.
Thanks for your enthusiastic comment, though I have to tell you this picture got nowhere at my camera club!
