Prague (Czech: Praha) is the capital and largest city in the Czech Republic, the 14th largest city in the European Union and the historical capital of Bohemia. Situated in the north-west of the country on the Vltava river, the city is home to about 1.3 million people, while its metropolitan area is estimated to have a population of 2.6 million. The city has a temperate climate, with warm summers and chilly winters.
Prague has been a political, cultural and economic centre of central Europe complete with a rich history. Founded during the Romanesque and flourishing by the Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque eras, Prague was the capital of the Kingdom of Bohemia and the main residence of several Holy Roman Emperors, most notably of Charles IV (r. 1346–1378). It was an important city to the Habsburg Monarchy and its Austro-Hungarian Empire. The city played major roles in the Bohemian and Protestant Reformation, the Thirty Years' War and in 20th-century history as the capital of Czechoslovakia, during both World Wars and the post-war Communist era.
Prague is home to a number of famous cultural attractions, many of which survived the violence and destruction of 20th-century Europe. Main attractions include Prague Castle, Charles Bridge, Old Town Square with the Prague astronomical clock, the Jewish Quarter, Petřín hill and Vyšehrad. Since 1992, the extensive historic centre of Prague has been included in the UNESCO list of World Heritage Sites.
The city has more than ten major museums, along with numerous theatres, galleries, cinemas and other historical exhibits. An extensive modern public transportation system connects the city. Also, it is home to a wide range of public and private schools, including Charles University in Prague, the oldest university in Central Europe.
Prague is classified as an "Alpha −" global city according to GaWC studies and ranked sixth in the Tripadvisor world list of best destinations in 2016. Its rich history makes it a popular tourist destination and as of 2017, the city receives more than 8.5 million international visitors annually. Prague is the fourth most visited European city after London, Paris and Rome.

Strobist:
Two speedlights on 1/2 power in one silver umbrella, quite high (~ 2,5 m), 45° to the model. Why did we use two speedlights on half the power instead of one on full power? Makes them faster ..., to freeze the flying colored flour. The umbrella was half-collapsed to concentrate the spotlight.
Special thanks go to Martin Piechotta for the great helpfulness:

oconut milk powder is an ingredient in most Southeast Asian cooking and is not the liquid inside a coconut. It is prepared by soaking the grated flesh of a coconut in hot water or scalded milk, then straining the combination. Coconut milk is classified as thick, thin, or coconut cream. Thick coconut milk is the result of the first soaking and squeezing. If this milk is refrigerated it separates, and the top layer is the cream. Thin coconut milk is what is produced when one steeps the coconut meat a second time and then strains.
Coconut milk
Canned coconut milk separates naturally. The top layer can be spooned off for recipes calling for cream, or the two layers can be mixed together to get the most commonly called-for thick coconut milk.
Powder-like, fine texture, and white, coconut milk powder is manufactured through the spray drying process of raw unsweetened coconut cream. Very different from the more widely available and coarser desiccated coconut made from the white coconut meat, coconut milk powder is a good substitute for fresh coconut milk and an alternative to animal milk for those who would like a completely vegan food. However, many commercially available coconut milk powders list milk or casein, a milk protein, on their ingredient lists.[1] Vegans and those with milk allergy may need to prepare their own at home.
Powder saw me with the camera near the birdfeeder and he immediately jumped in the tree. grrrrrrrrrrr. I turned the sprinkler on under the feeder to keep him away, which made for a cool shot of the water by the purple fountain grass....in the next picture.

The pansy or pansy violets are a large group of hybrid plants cultivated as garden flowers.
Pansies are derived from Viola species Viola tricolor hybridized with other viola species. The name "pansy" also appears as part of the common name for other Viola species that are wildflowers in Europe.
