Welcome to week 169 of the Tuesday Photo Challenge!
As I am traveling for work this week, I have been pretty much out of touch due to long work days and little time between meetings. My apologies for the resultant delay. As I will have this evening to myself, I will get last week’s round up done then. Also, I should get the chance for some personal time on Friday to get a bit of photography in as well…
As I did get the chance to look out of my hotel room at night, there was a bit of inspiration that led to this week’s theme of Hill. In the town of Brno, there is a spectacular view of Spilberk Castle, which has stood atop the hill for over seven centuries. Therefore, your challenge is to share your favorite hills and/or what you find atop them.
I’m looking forward to seeing what hills you climb and capture!
Here’s the castle on the hill…
This view is from my 12th floor hotel room; this room has the feature that windows open all the way, so that I could get a good view. I’ve also taken a couple of EOS R shots that I will process in the near future.
The full rules of this challenge are in TPC Guidelines, but hereβs the tl;dr:
- Write a post with an image for this weekβs topic
- Please tag your post with fpj-photo-challenge (if youβre not sure about how tags work, please check out this WordPress article about tagging posts)
- Create a pingback link to this post, so that I can create a post showing all of the submissions over the week (note: pingbacks may not appear immediately, as my site is set up to require approval for linking to it; helps against previous bad experiences with spamming)
- Have fun creating something new (or sharing something old)!!
Hope you have fun with this week’s (day late) theme and conquer the hills!
Enjoy your travels!
Here are my hills: https://geriatrixfotogallerie.wordpress.com/2019/07/17/french-hills/
Nothing like the great French hills! Awesome!
I did have some hills I could have used but this popped up in my search.

Thank you kindly! The Malverns are amazing!
We had some lovely walks there.
Beautiful night shot.
Thank you, Maria! Love your post!!
I know that feeling of work getting in the way of exploration and the camera! But I like your sneaky shot from the window.
I know you asked for hill, but I’ve gone mountain. And a very colourful one. https://travelwithintent.com/2019/07/17/liverpool-mountain-rondinone-sculpture-tate/
Supersized hill! This sculpture is stunning!
This is a great night shot! Here is mine https://travel-with-tech.blog/2019/07/18/huffing-and-puffing-up-petrin-hill-in-prague/
Thank you! That hill is a good one to climb!
Here’s my Hill:

Wonderful post, David!
Thanks, I was thinking about some of the local chain saw carvings and that made me think of the wood piles sticking out of the water and they made me think of the eroded rock.
Hmm, a fortress on a hill is usually a sign of a pretty dodgy past. I guess various frontiers moved across Brno for centuries.
That is definitely true; the castle is impressive and built to last! Love your posts of Priene!
Thanks
Hi Frank, what a beautiful night shot of the castle, it looks like a wonderful place to visit! Our photos for this week are taken on the hill we’re climbing: https://whippetwisdom.com/2019/07/18/haibun-raspberry-blues/
Thank you, Xenia! Your post is stunning!
Thank you Frank! ππΎπΎ
Getting back into it! https://touringwithkids.com/2019/07/18/arthurs-seat-basically-a-big-hill/
A nice gentle hill. I love the set of photos.
Fantastic post!
now that’s a room with the view!

Did the limo make it over the hill? It looks very close to touching.
That is one awesome hill…not a great place for a stretch limousine π
This should be an easier one for me to capture. I live in a hilly area. Weather is very high this weekend (36ΒΊC), βbut I am hoping I get out in the early morning to capture some images.
You definitely put together a great assortment!!
I found some well traveled hills in my archives!

Those photos give that nostalgic feel, which is just fantastic!
Thanks!
Love the castle! Here’s mine – https://myheart2heart.blog/2019/07/22/on-to-the-hills/
Fantastic photo! Shimla looks magical!
Thank you so much π
All I know about Brno is they have a fabulous race track where the MotoGP race and over 100,000 people attend. Love your photo Frank π
Thank you, Brian; Brno is a great place to visit and has the feel of a university town.
Wonderful hilltop view of this fantastic citadel at night!
I haven’t participated in these challenges for a while, but I just discovered this today and my post of the hilltop buildings in Guanajuato, Mexico will fit π

Oh, I meant to say that I hope that my post of the hilltop buildings in Guanajuato, Mexico will fit π
Welcome back! That is a great shot!
Hello again Frank, here are some Coigach hills for this week’s lovely challenge: https://tranature.com/2019/07/21/silent-sunday-coigach-dreams/
Amazing post, Xenia!
Thank you Frank! π
