Postcards from Réunion.


Located in the middle of the Indian Ocean about 200 kilometres south-west of its nearest neighbour, Mauritius, Réunion has an area of 2,511 km2 and is one of the overseas department of France. This tropical island was formed about 3 million years ago by two volcanos “Le Piton des Neiges” and “Le Piton de La Fournaise” where the last one is still active. Réunion is one of the most beautiful islands in this ocean. Veritable, tropical paradise with a unique blend of French and local culture. Please have a look at some photos that I took there.

Žižkov Television Tower in Prague

This Television Tower was built between 1985 and 1992. Designed by the architect Václav Aulický and the structural engineer Jiří Kozák, it stands high above the city's traditional skyline from its position on top of a hill in the district of Žižkov, from which it takes its name. The tower is an example of high-tech architecture.
In 2000, sculptures by Czech artist David Černý of babies crawling up and down were temporarily attached to the tower's pillars. The sculptures were admired by many and were returned in 2001 as a permanent installation. Please have a look at some photos:
